We invite you to be part of the tradition of supporting Wilder and our work to serve the disadvantaged members of our community. Wilder's programs were once supported almost wholly from the proceeds of trust funds left by the Amherst H. Wilder family in the early 1900s. Today, because of a century of increased costs and growing service needs, only 25 percent of our operating budget comes from Endowment fund earnings. We depend on the generosity of our donors to help us continue to meet the needs of Saint Paul's most vulnerable residents. More Prepared for School Success Rosa remembers her daughter's excitement upon visiting Wilder's Child Development Center: "She just fell in love…when I saw her face I said to myself ‘here is the place she has to go.'" More Communicating Your Plans With Loved Ones You may be as hesitant about bringing up your estate plans to your loved ones as they are about asking you to cover this sensitive topic. Do your family, and yourself, a favor by bringing up the subject first. Everyone will be glad you did. More Should Estate Planning Be Called Life Planning? Guess what! If you have belongings, you have an estate. And without a plan, your estate could be subject to what the courts decide in case anything happens to you. More Your Will: Overhaul vs. Update Use our guide to learn when you simply need to update your will and when you need an entirely new will. More A Donation Option With Double the Tax Benefits Before you reach for your checkbook, don't overlook the benefits that a donation of stock can present. Even during hard times, you may still have stocks worth more today than when you purchased them, making a gift to Wilder Foundation a tax-wise choice. More |
