There are many planned gifts that won’t affect your existing financial resources but will have a significant impact on Misericordia University. Give to the organization you care so much about, while maintaining control and flexibility.
Gifts by Will or Trust
A charitable gift from your estate is a favored method of giving that enables you to achieve your financial goals, maintain control of your assets, and benefit Misericordia.
Naming Us in Your Assets
While you may transfer many of your assets through your will or living trust, a document called a beneficiary designation controls distribution of your retirement plans, life insurance policies, commercial annuities and a variety of financial accounts.
The IRA Gift (QCD)
The IRA charitable rollover (also called the Qualified Charitable Distribution, or QCD) is a great way to make a tax-free gift to Misericordia University.
Life Income Gifts
Support Misericordia while generating income for yourself and your family. Learn how these gifts allow you to achieve both of these goals.
Charitable Lead Trust
Make a substantial gift to Misericordia University in the form of fixed annual payments and pass assets to your family or other heirs at reduced tax cost.
