The KPVL Presidential Society

KPVL has a strong base of supporters, but there is an important group of donors whose gifts each year provide a bit of extra momentum as we approach the opportunities and challenges of keeping up the standard of quality expected from us.

The purpose of the Presidential Society is two-fold. First, to more appropriately recognize valued members who have both the vision and means to support the efforts of KPVL in a substantial way. Second, to provide a significant source of funding that will help to ensure the ongoing operations of the station, as well as maintain a wide margin of continued excellence in programming and service to the KPVL coverage area. If you ever wondered why public radio sounds different, remember this: It's because of you. Individuals account for over 40% of the funds that keep public radio running. Because of that support, we can take the time to give you radio that's worth listening to.

Planned Giving The term "planned giving" refers to charitable gifts that require some planning before they are made. Planned gifts are popular because they can provide valuable tax benefits and/or income for life. Planned gifts include

Bequests - A gift made through a will is called a bequest. When a gift is made to KPVL Radio through a will, the estate will receive a charitable estate tax deduction.

Charitable Gift Annuity - A KPVL Radio Gift Annuity is a contract between KPVL Radio and the donor. In return for a contribution of cash or other appropriate assets, KPVL Radio agrees to pay the donor (or someone else of their choosing) a fixed income for life. The donor enjoys a charitable tax deduction and, if the gift is made with appreciated stock, may also enjoy capital gains tax savings. Deferred gift annuities, in which the income is deferred for a number of years, are often established by younger donors.

Charitable Trusts - There are several types of charitable trusts, including the Charitable Remainder Trust and the Charitable Lead Trust. All offer attractive tax benefits.

Insurance A cash value life insurance policy that is no longer needed can be contributed to KPVL Radio, and may be used to establish a Charitable Gift Annuity. An individual may also purchase a life insurance policy on himself or herself and, by making KPVL Radio the irrevocable owner and beneficiary, can enjoy a charitable income tax deduction for the premiums.

Retained Life Estate - A personal residence or farm may be given to KPVL Radio with the donor retaining the right to live there for the remainder of his or her life. The donor will receive an income tax deduction for the gift. KPVL Radio can use or sell the property at the donor's death.

For more information on how you can help KPVL Radio fulfill its mission with a planned gift, contact Randy Frank at 563-864-7945 or kpvlradio@kpvlradio.com. You are encouraged to consult your financial advisor or attorney before making a significant gift to any organization.

Businesses, organizations and institutions benefit from underwriting on KPVL. Not only do they receive on-air acknowledgement for their support of public radio, but they are visible on our Underwriters page at http://www.kpvlradio.com. A KPVL contract of $500 or more qualifies you for a link to your website from this list. Premiere underwriters are also eligible for our spotlight feature on the KPVL home page.
