Open editorPlanned giving shouldn't require a whole department.
Whether you're a food bank, an arts organization, a health nonprofit, or a small human-services agency, your supporters can include your cause in their will. You just need a way to make that easy and visible.
Your team wears a lot of hats.
You don't have time to manage a complex planned-giving program on top of everything else. LotusGiving runs in the background once it's set up.
Leave a legacy of care for animals in need.
Create a legally valid will for free, and include Riverside Humane Society if it's right for you.
Start my will — freeYour donors are more capable of a legacy gift than you might think.
A will costs supporters nothing extra to complete through LotusGiving, which means the barrier isn't wealth; it's awareness and friction.

Of American adults have a will (2025)
The lowest rate since tracking began. Most of your supporters haven't completed a will at all yet. That reframes the opportunity: it isn't about convincing people to give, it's about giving them an easy way to start.
