Legacy Giving

Make a difference for our families each year

Make Your Bequest Today!

The easiest way to create a planned gift is by including a bequest to RMHFW in your estate plan. Bequests cost nothing to give today, but will support children and families in need for future generations.

We have partnered with FreeWill, to provide a free, online tool to help you easily create a will. Write your legal will in 20 minutes or less and while doing so consider leaving a planned gift to the Ronald McDonald House of Fort Worth. FreeWill can be used with an attorney, and can help you include the necessary language to create your planned gift. 

When you include RMHFW in your estate plans, you become a cherished member of our Legacy of Love Society—a special group of supporters committed to leaving love and support for future families. As a token of our deep appreciation, your name will be added to our Legacy of Love Society Wall, honoring your lasting impact on the families we serve.

If you’ve already included RMHFW in your estate plan, let us know! We’d love to thank you for your generosity and formally invite you to our Legacy of Love Society.

If you have questions, please email angie.gallaway@rmhfw.org.

Gifts of Stock

A Tax-Wise Way to Give

Donating appreciated securities such as stocks, bonds, or mutual funds allows you to give more—without using cash. By transferring stock directly to RMHFW, you can avoid a capital gains tax, receive a charitable deduction for the full fair market value, and amplify your philanthropic impact. This method is especially beneficial if your investments have grown significantly over time.
