These instruments allow you to make a bequest to Haymarket People's Fund and, at the same time, provide for income and tax deductions during your lifetime and reduce or even eliminate estate taxes. You and your attorney will need to choose the instrument that best suits your situation. Whatever form your gift takes, your generosity and foresight can make a significant difference in the fight for peace, equality, and economic justice. Since the birth of Haymarket People's Fund, in 1974, we have been organizing wealth conferences. The conferences, available twice a year, are held in April and November.
Every year there is one conference just for women.
These are welcoming and engaging conferences for individuals with wealth, their partners and families, to find support, challenge, and community around issues of wealth, class, and social change. Throughout the course of a conference weekend we create a space where participants feel comfortable delving into important issues. Our workshops and sharing circles encourage participants to examine the personal and emotional aspects of wealth and philanthropy along with many political, social and strategic aspects of giving. If having surplus money is an issue in your life, please feel welcome. Conference participants represent a variety of ethnic, religious and class backgrounds, and a wide range of ages, lifestyles and sexual orientations.
