What would you do if you could?
Credit card gifts on-line
Selecting
the best gift plan depends on your personal financial
situation and goals. As tax laws are always changing and
each individual's situation is unique, you are
encouraged to consult with financial advisors to
determine which method of contributing is most
beneficial to you. Please ask yourself what would
you do if you could to ensure quality education into the
future.
There are many creative ways of giving so that you are
able to meet your needs, those of your family and have
the opportunity to give to the College. Pledges are
commitments made in good faith, but are not legally
binding. You may want to consider stretching your pledge
over a five-year pledge period to maximize the total
amount of your support. We encourage all donors to
consider a 10-20 percent down payment to begin your
commitment.
Gifts made by cash or check are the most common and will
allow Presentation College to address its immediate
needs. However, we will gratefully accept gifts in
various forms, including those described below:
Bequests -
Bequests may be made through your will and may include a
dollar amount or a percentage of your estate.
Life Insurance
- You may donate to the campaign by making Presentation
College the owner and beneficiary of your insurance
policy.
Securities - A
gift of appreciated stock is a most advantageous form of
giving.
Real Estate -
If you have owned the property for 12 months or more,
you avoid capital gains taxes and may deduct the
property’s fair market value.
Charitable Lead Trusts
- Charitable Lead Trusts are funded with an asset and
the earnings are contributed to Presentation College for
the life of the trust. When the trust reaches its
termination date, the principal goes to your
beneficiaries.
Charitable Remainder
Trusts - Charitable Remainder Trusts are
funded with an asset and the earnings are paid as income
to you and your beneficiaries. Upon the death of the
last beneficiary, the principal goes to Presentation
College.
Gift Annuity -
Gift annuities provide you with a lifetime income. The
annual return on your gift generally varies depending on
your age. You also receive a tax deduction, tax-free
return of principal and deferment of capital gains tax
if you use appreciated assets to make the gift.
