A beneficiary designation offers a simple way to leave a lasting gift without changing your will or trust. You retain control of your account during your lifetime and may generally update your designation if your circumstances change.

You may name IFA as a beneficiary of:

• An IRA or other retirement account
• A life insurance policy
• A bank or investment account
• A certificate of deposit
• A donor-advised fund

How to Make a Beneficiary Designation

1. Contact the company or financial institution that manages your account.
2. Request a beneficiary designation form, or update your beneficiaries online.
3. Decide what percentage you would like IFA to receive.
4. Enter IFA’s legal name, mailing address, and Federal Tax ID shown below.
5. Submit the designation and keep a copy with your estate-planning documents.

Beneficiary rules and potential tax consequences vary. Please consult your financial, tax, or legal adviser about your particular circumstances.

A planned gift can reflect your faith, provide for the people you love, and help keep prayer at the heart of America for generations to come.
