We view the gifts we make to Treehouse as investments in our community’s future.” – Susan, Member of the Treehouse Fostering Futures Society

Your legacy gift can build our community’s bright future.

Including Treehouse in your estate plans is a simple way to make a lasting impact on youth in foster care. You can foster the future of Treehouse youth through bequests, retirement accounts (IRA, 401K, etc), trusts or life insurance.

A financial advisor or estate planning attorney can provide you with more details about these options and can help you create the legacy you and your family hope to leave behind.

If you want to know more or have already included Treehouse in your plans, please contact Meaghan Lindberg at 206.735.2055 or meaghan@treehouseforkids.org.

Donating real estate to Treehouse is a great way to support our mission to provide youth in foster care across Washington state with academic and other essential support.

Treehouse partners with CARS (Charitable Adult Rides & Services) to process real estate donations to benefit Treehouse. Our program takes any property type (land, homes, commercial) in any location so long as there is equity. If you have a real estate asset costing you money or not being utilized, donating it is a great way to give back and you may even claim a significant tax deduction! Donate today.
