Planned gifts are a wonderful way to ensure that Sakonnet Preservation will continue to protect the rural character and beauty of Little Compton for generations to come. By including Sakonnet Preservation in your estate plans, you are contributing to the ongoing legacy and long-term financial stability of the oldest community land trust in Rhode Island. Options include a bequest in your will or trust, or naming Sakonnet Preservation as a beneficiary of a retirement plan or life insurance policy. Discussions with your financial or legal advisors will inform you of the potential tax benefits associated with the different giving options.
