givingWhile GIVING comes for many special reasons through many different ways, its impact remains the same. GIVING changes the course of history. GIVING has undoubtedly changed ours.

Throughout this special Evergreen Foundation Green Leaves GIVING edition, you will see the impact made by our many generous donors. They have helped support the Evergreen vision, a vibrant community that offers rich life experiences and choices in programs, services and environments for those we serve. Their GIVING has helped fund changes, promote improvements and realize growth.

Because GIVING creates a familial relationship, all our donors are members of our Evergreen Family of Friends. To you all we tirelessly extend our sincere gratitude, appreciation and love. We pray that God showers upon you His choicest blessings.

is History in the Making

GIVING each year is encouraged for the purposes that need annual support as well as for specific purposes determined during each individual year. Evergreen’s GIVING history began with an emphasis on supporting the benevolent fund used

for residents who outlive their financial resources. While the benevolent need continues to require annual support, many other projects are offered as opportunities for donor interest and support.

Comes for Many Special Reasons

Giving with IRA Charitable Rollover LegislationThe Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act as amended in 2015 makes the IRA Charitable Rollover permanent law. This is an important giving vehicle for our donors who are age 70 1/2 or older because it allows you to transfer up to $100,000 annually from your IRA accounts directly to Evergreen without having to pay income tax on the money. This opportunity applies only to IRAs and not to other types of retirement plans. You may not receive any goods or services in return for the rollover gift in order to qualify for tax-free treatment.

Having its start in 2011 with a feasibility study determining a $3 million goal, our Building Community Campaign from September 2012 through February 2017, has realized a total of $2,901,178 from 281 donors of cash, pledges, planned estate gifts and bequests. All campaign gifts and pledges made since its beginning are recognized in this report. Pledged gifts are identified with asterisks and are listed in their entirety.

We are overwhelmed and deeply grateful for all who have supported the Building Community Campaign. It has been an effort by many: our board, committee, campaigner, and staff volunteers; and our staff who have been diligent in maintaining the level of work and attention needed to accomplish this mighty task. Before we close this campaign we rest our hope and trust in the continued generosity of Evergreen residents, family, staff and friends who will be moved to help us reach our $3 million goal. We give thanks for our many donors and for the many blessings God continues to bestow on us.

Legacy planned giving continues to see an upward spiral. Between 2000 and 2016, the Leave a Legacy Guild welcomed 46 new planned giving members who have informed Evergreen that we have been named as a beneficiary in their estate plans. Periodically we receive unexpected estate gifts. While we are gratefully surprised, growing the Leave a Legacy Guild membership assists us with planning and also benefits our members as well.

Knowing of our donors’ plans enables us to express our loving gratitude during their lifetimes and enables us to share with the entire Evergreen community our heartfelt appreciation for their generous and loving foresight.

LEAVE A LEGACY GUILDPLANNED GIFTS

We are grateful for our residents and friends who plan to make a lasting impact on Evergreen through their estate plans.

LEAVE A LEGACY GUILD BEQUESTSWe are grateful for our residents and friends who have made a lasting impact on Evergreen through their estate plans.

Evergreen’s history of legacy giving began in 1982. In 1988 Evergreen received its first largest bequest from founder Howard Rowland, who secured his dream for Evergreen through the Howard Rowland Trust. Its annual earnings continue to help offset Evergreen’s benevolent need each year.

By the year 2000, Evergreen realized from 58 donors bequests totaling $2,411,924. Sixteen years later, an additional 55 bequests generated $5,876,271. This has brought our total legacy giving to $8,288,195 from 113 estates.

Since its beginning, the Rowlands’ legacy of faith and generosity has inspired change, improvement, growth and giving. Their legacy has changed the course of Evergreen history.

Founders GroveRenovation is in the air and will soon take over the Manor Building front entrance as well as the beautiful cedar redwood Founders Grove Recognition Wall. Established in 1986, Founders Grove pays tribute to Evergreen Manor and Evergreen Foundation founders along with significant donors and memorials throughout the years. Patterned after the original, the newly designed Founders Grove Recognition Wall will remember the same people whose gifts of faith and generosity throughout our first fifty years will continue to inspire Evergreen for generations to come.
