The Redwoods, the nonprofit senior community founded in 1972 by the Community Church of Mill Valley, provides multi-level, affordable rental housing, services and care to more than 300 low- and moderate-income seniors from across the SF Bay Area and beyond. 

The facility also regularly educates Its residents and their families on a variety of relevant issues, and is doing so again later this year by inviting attorney Genevieve M. Moore, a partner in the law firm Bancroft & McAllister LLP in Larkspur and an expert in charitable giving, to lead a workshop on Planned Giving, an established method of making charitable donations. 

The event is set for Monday, November 4 from 6-7:30pm in the Mt. Tam Room on The Redwoods campus  at 40 Camino Alto. It is free and open to the public and will include both a workshop and reception. Reservations are required; RSVP to Christian Mills at 415.383-2741 or cmills@theredwoods.org.  

Moore, who has more than 30 years’ experience in the field and is also a member of The Redwoods board of directors, will cover estate and gift planning through the use of wills, trusts, and beneficiary organizations. She will also discuss estate tax and probate considerations.

“Planned gifts from estates use current tax laws to maximize a gift’s impact and return financial benefits to the donor,” explains Christian Mills, Director of Development. ”This event is a great opportunity for community members interested in investing in The Redwoods and other worthy non-profit organizations to learn the basics Planned Giving and to get the tools needed to start a program.”
