Welcome to the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation Planned Giving Program

Welcome to the Estate Planning page of the Center for Arms Control & Non-Proliferation.  Planned giving provides a rather uncomplicated opportunity to combine your philanthropic interest and your financial planning.  A planned gift enables you to give more funding to the mission and work of our organization than you ever imagined possible, while still providing you or a family member designate with generous financial and tax benefits.
 
We have created this web page to tell you about the different methods of planned giving and to provide you with numerous strategies that can assist in enhancing your family's well being, as well as the well being of The Center.  I hope that you will find the information provided here informative and helpful, and again, welcome.

 

General Weekly Thought

 Trouble on the Way ? Just because a problem has your name, that doesn't mean it will find you.

 

            Most of the bad things we see coming never make it to us.  As President Calvin Coolidge said, "If you seen ten troubles coming down the road, you can be sure that nine will run into the ditch before they reach you."  How much better our lives are when we stop worrying about what could happen and handle what actually is.
