Gifts that pay you back

Transfer securities, cash, or other property to the YWCA Evanston/North Shore and we’ll manage the investment of the assets and pay an income to you, your designated beneficiaries, or both. Receive payments for the rest of your life or, in some cases, up to a certain number of years.

Planned giving propels our mission forward

A gift in your will ensures we can continue working to eliminate racism and empower women for years to come.

We’re here to help you meet your goals!

Our team would be happy to speak with you in confidence about your giving goals, with no obligation.
