 | | Gifts which KPL is prepared to accept, with the assistance of the Kalamazoo Foundation, may include: charitable remainder or lead trusts; pooled income funds; revocable trusts; gifts of annuities, remainder interest, retirement programs or life insurance; charitable bequests; and gifts in kind, such as real estate, securities, and tangible personal property. |
 | | The function of KPL personnel is to inform, serve, guide, or otherwise assist the donor in fulfilling his or her philanthropic wishes, but never to pressure or unduly persuade. |
 | | It is the policy of KPL to seek the advice of legal counsel in matters pertaining to fund development, and not to execute any agreement, contract, trust or any other legal document with any donor without the advice of legal counsel. |
