Through a specific bequest, you can name a particular dollar amount, or through a residuary bequest, you can give all or part of what is remaining after payment of debts, expenses, and specific bequests. If you would like to make such a gift to NLP, your attorney may wish to include language similar to the following:<br><br>"I give, devise, and bequeath to the News Literacy Project, or its successor, now or formerly at [address], a gift of ($_____ or _____ percent of the rest, residue, and remainder of my estate), to be used for its general purposes."</p> </div> <button class="accordion">Retirement Plans, Insurance Policies, Gift Annuities</button> <div class="panel"> <p>You might also consider naming NLP as a beneficiary in your retirement plan, insurance policy, or bank and investment accounts. Depending on the plan, NLP can be named as a full, partial, or contingent beneficiary.<br><br> There are other planned giving options that can provide you with payments for the rest of your life, with the remaining funds passing to NLP. These gift options include charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, and pooled income fund donations. <br><br> You will need the following information: <br><br> Address: 5335 Wisconsin Avenue, Suite 440, Washington, DC 20015 Employer Identification Number (EIN): <strong>27-4011343</strong>. <br><br> <em>Please note: This information is not intended as tax or legal advice.

Or you could choose to make a charitable gift of whatever balance remains in a retirement account, which also saves on taxes. </p> </div> <button class="accordion">Q.

Today, we are reading and watching the horror of autocracy play out from Putin’s actions in Ukraine. We are living in a worldwide crisis of values that will not be defeated in my lifetime. Rather, it will take sustained commitment and work by NLP and educators everywhere to develop future generations of news consumers.</li> <li><strong>What hopes do you have for the next generation to fully participate in our democracy?</strong><br> I was not exposed to the discipline and practice of journalism until college in the 1960s. If I were the “decider” today, journalism classes and NLP programs would be mandatory in grades 6-12. In addition to teaching young people to differentiate truth from fiction, they also must be taught how journalism and news literacy are the foundation of democracy. </li> <li><strong>Is there anything else you'd like to share?</strong><br> I discovered NLP after the late great Gwen Ifill died in 2016. I never missed her on the PBS NewsHour or Washington Week. I wanted to make a contribution in her memory to an organization that reflected her values and mine. When I learned that she was on the NLP Board, my response was immediate.</li> </ol> </div> </div> <div id="modal-bg"></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="wrap1 -py:3 -pb:2 -b:martinique -c:white -inverted"> <div class="wrap1-contain"> <div class="stream4"> <div class="stream4-grid"> <article class="teaser3" data-reveal="2b"> <span class="teaser3-link"> <figure class="teaser3-image" self="none" data-reveal> <span class="img1 " style="padding-top: 100%" > <img class="lazyload" data-src="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/moore-family.jpg" alt="David and Katherine Moore" data-srcset="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/moore-family-800x800.jpg 800w, https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/moore-family-400x400.jpg 400w" data-sizes="auto" /> <span class="spin2 "><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i></span> <noscript><img alt="David and Katherine Moore" data-src="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/moore-family.jpg" class="lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw=="><noscript><img src="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/moore-family.jpg" alt="David and Katherine Moore"></noscript></noscript> </span> </figure> <div class="teaser3-wrap" flex="column" self="none"> <h4 class="teaser3-title"><span><span data-reveal="1"><span>A</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>family</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>legacy:</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>Building</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>an</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>appreciation</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>for</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>journalism</span></span></span></h4> <p class="teaser3-intro" data-reveal>The David and Katherine Moore Endowment continues David Moore's commitment to making a difference by building an appreciation for journalism and by educating the next generation. <a href="https://newslit.org/updates/the-moore-family-and-nlp-a-leap-of-faith-and-a-legacy-gift/" target="_blank">Click here to read more</a>.<p> </div> </span> </article> <article class="teaser3" data-reveal="2b"> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88DSUex02gU" class="teaser3-link" data-lity> <figure class="teaser3-image" self="none" data-reveal> <span class="img1 video2" style="padding-top: 100%" > <img class="lazyload" data-src="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Alan-small-1440x806.jpg" alt="Alan Miller" data-srcset="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Alan-small-800x800.jpg 800w, https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Alan-small-400x400.jpg 400w" data-sizes="auto" /> <span class="spin2 "><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i></span> <noscript><img alt="Alan Miller" data-src="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Alan-small-1440x806.jpg" class="lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw=="><noscript><img src="https://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Alan-small-1440x806.jpg" alt="Alan Miller"></noscript></noscript> </span> </figure> <div class="teaser3-wrap" flex="column" self="none"> <h4 class="teaser3-title"><span><span data-reveal="1"><span>An</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>essential</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>survival</span></span> <span data-reveal="1"><span>skill</span></span></span></h4> <p class="teaser3-intro" data-reveal>“Teaching news literacy is not an option.
