Planned giving

Your legacy can outlast injustice.

Wrongful convictions don’t end when someone walks out of prison. Rebuilding a life takes years — and the work of proving innocence, fighting for exoneration, and restoring what was taken doesn’t stop either. A planned gift to the Tennessee Innocence Project ensures that work continues long after you’re gone.

This is how justice becomes permanent.

Ways to give:

• Charitable bequest — Name Tennessee Innocence Project in your will or living trust
• Retirement plan or IRA designation — List us as a beneficiary on your account
• Life insurance gift — Designate us as a full or partial beneficiary
• Charitable remainder trust or gift annuity — Receive income during your lifetime while supporting our work
• Gifts of stock or real estate — Transfer appreciated assets with potential tax advantages
• Charitable lead trust — Direct income to us for a set term, with remainder passing to your heirs
