Leave a Legacy of Rainforest Conservation

Making a planned gift to Coalition for Rainforest Nations ensures that we are able to fight global deforestation for many years to come. By adding CfRN to your will, trust, or other planned giving vehicle, you are protecting our rainforests for future generations.

How It Works

Almost all legacy gifts to CfRN are made through a will or trust. You may decide to leave to CfRN*:

  • A specific dollar amount or asset (e.g. marketable securities) OR
  • A percentage of your residual estate (what remains after gifts to loved ones and expenses have been paid)

* Important – Please consult your financial advisor, attorney, and/or planned giving specialist first if you are considering a legacy gift to CfRN.

Important Information to make a legacy gift:

Legal name: Coalition for Rainforest Nations Secretariat, Inc.

Address: 52 Vanderbilt Avenue, 12th Floor, New York, NY 10017, USA

Federal tax ID#: 26-3221530

Steps to make a Legacy Gift to CfRN

  1. Working with your financial advisor, attorney, and/or planned giving specialist, designate your legacy gift to CfRN.
  2. Inform CfRN of your legacy gift. While not required, letting us know of your legacy gift enables CfRN to confirm your gift now and inform family members when we receive it. We also want to ensure that we utilize your planned gift for your intended purpose.

To inform CfRN of your gift, please either:

  • Contact our Development Team (giving@cfrn.org or 646-448-6870, ext. 6895). Please provide as much detail as possible about your planned gift (see form below for requested details).

Or

  • Complete and submit the legacy gift information form below. Only your name and email address are required, but we appreciate you providing as much information as possible so we can correctly identify, acknowledge, and steward your gift.

Rainforest nations are slowing deforestation based on goodwill and with little financial support. Join our movement.

“The good news is that a 1.5-degree pathway is technically achievable. The bad news is that the math is daunting. Such a pathway would require dramatic emissions reductions over the next ten years—starting now.”
