How do you want to be remembered? Feeding the hungry? Educating the poor? Empowering the forgotten? Saving open land?
All these things are possible with a gift to the Santa Barbara Foundation. Current gifts give us immediate flexibility to help the community. We make it easy for you by accepting gifts of many kinds and informing you of the tax benefits of your giving.
For some of us, however, making a substantial charitable gift during our lifetimes is simply not possible. Whether it is the demands of family or a concern for remaining independent in our later years, some of us prefer to delay a gift until our passing. With thoughtful estate planning, you may be able to make a much bigger difference in our world than you imagine.
We accept many types of assets to help you begin your philanthropic journey today.
