Development - Planned Giving

The lives of students at Athol Murray College of Notre Dame are enriched every day because someone has given to this institution. The vast majority of gifts by individuals have been simple donations that come either entirely unsolicited or through the Annual Fund, the Major Gifts Programme, or special campaigns. In today's world, however, more and more thoughtful alumni and friends are also making provisions to give to the College through their estates because this type of gift benefits everyone involved.

There are potential benefits of Planned Giving:

• Increase current income for the donor or others.
• Planned Gifts are usually tax deductible. A well planned donation will reduce income taxes, either in the current year, in your estate's final tax return, or both.
• Avoid capital gains tax.
• Ensure that your legacy will live on through the gift and the students it ultimately benefits.
• Pass assets to family at a reduced tax cost.
• Make significant donations to the College.
