Planned giving
The SPCA of Northern Nevada receives no funding from the ASPCA, tax dollars or any other animal welfare organization. We are an independent agency relying on donations from generous individuals, businesses, adoption fees, grants and proceeds from our thrift store. Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.
Planned gifts are a critical source of funding that enables the SPCA of Northern Nevada to plan and carry out the best programs to save abandoned and homeless pets. To remember these animals in such an enduring way is quite possibly the most powerful gift that a person can make to stop animal suffering.
U.S. tax laws are structured to encourage charitable giving, and unlimited amounts can generally be left for charitable purposes free of estate and gift taxes. You do not need a great deal of wealth to make a difference — every dollar means an extra chance for an animal in need.
Your estate plan represents your beliefs, your life, and a way to continue your compassion into the future. Here are some of the giving options available:
