WAYS TO SUPPORT BCC BUILDING PRESERVATION

One: A bequest to the Landmark Heritage Foundation can be included in a will or living trust and can be for any dollar amount. The usual wording is: "I give to the Landmark Heritage Foundation the sum of $___________ to be used as directed by the LHF Board of Directors." Such gifts can be directed to the LHF Endowment Fund or the Unrestricted Fund. Bequests can also be designated for a specific project such as pool restoration, exterior, windows, furnishings or rug preservation, etc. Please contact the LHF office with any questions.

Two: Late in 2010 Congress reauthorized a tax provision which, until the end of 2011, allows donors over 70 1/2 years of age to transfer any amount up to $100,000 from an IRA account to fund a gift without having to include the transferred amount in their taxable income. (401K, 403B tax deferred pension plans, etc., do not qualify). Because such transfers are not included in the donor's taxable income, transfers are not eligible for the taxable income tax deduction. (You cannot double dip.) To be eligible, transfers must be made no later than December 31, 2011, and must be made directly to LHF from the IRA custodian. Check with your tax consultant to see if this program is beneficial to you and do the math.

Three: LHF accepts and acknowledges honorary and memorial donations. We recently received donations to commemorate a person's milestone birthday.

Four: Become a docent and introduce Julia Morgan and this beautiful building to visitors. Or volunteer to help organize the archives for a greater appreciation of what is so worth preserving.

Your help is needed! Please support us.

The Landmark Heritage Foundation invites you to support our preservation of the landmark, the Berkeley City Club building, by Julia Morgan, 1930.

_______________________________________
Our preservation projects are costly.
These are the building's most urgent needs:
• restoration of the exterior
• restoration of the pool - its windows, stained glass light fixtures,
tile work and skylights, and the pool dressing room
• rehabilitation of the leaded glass windows

Most importantly, we need to raise over $1,000,000 to reach our $2,000,000 endowment goal. This fund's annual interest will support our work.
