Stock Gifts

P&A accepts gifts of stocks and bonds.

Wills

Make your wishes known.  Seven out of ten Americans die without an up-to-date will.  Leaving a bequest to P&A is simple.  Example: I give, devise, and bequeath to Protection and Advocacy for People with Disabilities, Inc., a South Carolina non-profit organization, or its successor organization, the sum of $_____ (or describe the specific property you intend to bequeath).  Simple estate planning techniques can minimize taxes and maximize your estate for the people and causes you care about.

How P&A Uses Your Donations

It is only through your financial support that we can provide thousands of South Carolinians with disabilities with information and referral, case services, education and political advocacy.  In 2010, 84.9 % of total expenses were for direct services.  Want to see more information about our organization?  Click below for our Guidestar listing.
