Gift Planning

Make a Gift
through your Estate Plan


Name Graceland in your will, revocable trust, retirement plan or other estate planning document.

A provision in your will or living trust that directs a portion of your estate to Graceland University is one type of bequest. A charitable bequest to Graceland not only furthers your lifetime commitment to the University, but also provides significant estate tax benefits. A gift made after one's life is often the most realistic way for many to make a significant contribution to Graceland.

Bequest options:

  • Bequest
  • Trusts
    You can benefit your family and Graceland, and save taxes with a gift plan that designates Graceland as beneficiary.
  • Retirement Plans
    It can be advantageous to first use tax-deferred assets, such as retirement plans and IRA's, to fund charitable bequests.
