David and Amanda have been married for 25 years. They have two kids who are both independent and out of the house. Three years ago, the couple sold their business Retail Inc. to a multinational company. They feel they have more than they require in term of assets and cash flow and have been giving consideration to making donations to their favorite charity; an organization called Paws and Claws that finds homes for dogs and exotic parrots. They were doing some research and came across an article in the Globe & Mail that shed some light on ways how charitable bequests can be made through insurance policies. The couple always had a risk management plan in place but after the sale of the business they are considering using their life insurance policies to plan a charitable gift. They are somewhat confused however as there are different implications to making such bequests and would like to speak to you in order to get some additional information.
