Homeless pets rely on North Shore Animal League America to rescue them and provide them healthy happy lives. The Animal League relies on its supporters to ensure that its life-saving work will continue. What is a "Planned Gift"? Planned Gifts can come in many forms, but they all share a common characteristic in that the Animal League’s use of the gift is deferred in your lifetime. You can make a more significant gift to the Animal League than you ever thought possible, while maximizing the financial and tax benefits to you, your estate, and your family. A planned gift is one of the most effective ways to ensure that the Animal League can carry on its mission of saving animals’ lives far into the future.
