A Legacy To Last
Meaningful opportunities. Unforgettable experiences. Bright futures. You enable all of this, and more, when you include the Foundation for IUP in your estate plan. Choosing a Planned Giving path means linking your legacy to the lives and accomplishments of countless IUP students—and ensuring your IUP impact has no limits.
With so many ways to participate in Planned Giving, we can help you choose the right plan for you and your loved ones. But first, let’s explore the benefits for you.
Five Reasons To Make A Planned Gift to IUP:
1. It is easy.
Making a bequest is as simple as inserting a few sentences in your will, such as, “I give $XX to IUP.
2. It is revocable.
Wills and trusts are not written in stone and can be changed at any time.
3. You can still put family first.
By choosing either a specific bequest or residual bequest, you will only bequeath assets you are comfortable giving.
4. It creates a legacy.
By choosing either a specific bequest or residual bequest, you can direct your bequest to a particular purpose, which ensures your gift to IUP has special meaning for you.
5. It may be tax-wise.
Your estate or trust is entitled to an unlimited estate tax charitable deduction for bequests to qualified charitable organizations. Consult your tax advisor for details on your specific situation.
