Planned Giving

Gifts from Your Will or Trust

Need to preserve assets? You can plan a gift to us that will take effect only after your other obligations are fulfilled.



How It Works

  • Include a gift to Indian River State College Foundation in your will or trust. (Here is sample bequest language for your will.)
  • Your bequest will support the overall mission of Indian River State College Foundation.
  • Indicate that you would like a percentage of the balance remaining in your estate or trust, or indicate a specific amount.
  • Tell us about your gift so we may celebrate your generosity now.

Benefits

  • Your assets remain in your control during your lifetime.
  • You can modify your gift to address changing circumstances.
  • You can direct your gift to a particular purpose (be sure to check with us to make sure your gift can be used as intended).
  • Under current tax law, there is no upper limit on the estate tax deduction for your charitable bequests.


Create a Lasting Legacy

Philanthropic planning is a powerful mechanism for meeting personal estate planning objectives while making a meaningful impact on the College’s initiatives and mission. At Indian River State College, we welcome the opportunity to work with estate planners to ensure that your clients find the charitable arrangements that best meet their needs.

Estate-planning options can achieve significant tax benefits while furthering a client’s philanthropic goals:

  • Gifts through a will or trust
  • Charitable trusts and gift annuities
  • Donation of stocks and mutual funds

If your client has already included or intends to include Indian River State College in their will or estate plan, or if you would like someone from IRSC Institutional Advancement to contact you to discuss how to support IRSC as part of their estate planning strategy, please contact us.
