Gifts such as stocks, retirement accounts, life insurance, charitable gift annuities, IRA distributions, and other assets allow you to make a lasting impact. The easiest way to donate securities is through an electronic transfer. Your broker may contact Amanda Green at 270-926-6110, option 3, or amanda@habitatowensboro.org ()to arrange a planned gift.
