Ways to Give

Charitable Bequest

A bequest is the simplest way to make a planned gift to Presentation. By including a provision for Presentation in your estate plans, you can make a valuable contribution to our students’ future without affecting your lifestyle, your cash flow, or your family’s security.

IRA Gift

Gifts of retirement assets can provide valuable tax benefits for you and your family while maximizing your impact on our students. You can designate Presentation as a beneficiary of your retirement account or, if you are 70½ years of age or older, take advantage of the IRA rollover to transfer your required minimum distribution directly to Presentation.

Gift of Life Insurance

If you have an unneeded life insurance policy, you can provide a great benefit to Presentation by either designating the university as a beneficiary of your plan or transferring ownership of the policy to us.

Gifts of Real Estate

If you own real property (land and/or the structures and natural resources on that land), you can donate it to Presentation outright or use it to fund a gift planning vehicle like a trust. 

Charitable Trusts

There are a number of different kinds of trusts to fit your financial and philanthropic goals. In most cases, a trust provides income to you or your loved ones for a period of time before distributing its balance to Presentation. Income from a charitable trust may be taxed differently from ordinary income, and a portion of your income from a trust may even be tax free, depending on your situation. 

Gifts of Stocks and Bonds

If you’re holding appreciated assets like stocks and bonds and want to avoid capital gains taxes, you can transfer those assets directly to Presentation in support of our mission.
