Minimize Taxes Support a Cause

Estate Planning: Consider a planned charitable gift to the RAP Foundation. While the foundation accepts donations of cash, we are also able to accept real estate, bequests through wills, trust agreements and may be the beneficiary of an insurance policy. Speak to your estate planning attorney or financial advisor regarding gifts that may provide you with income and then a charitable gift to the RAP Foundation.

You Shop - You Help

Shop: Every time you shop the stores in the Costco Shopping Center on Dinah Shore and Monterey in Palm Desert you help local charities. A piece of funding to the RAP Foundation comes from an agreement with the County of Riverside resulting from an agreement between the County and the City of Palm Desert where the sales tax is matched and passed to the RAP Foundation to be used to provide services in eastern Riverside County.
