Planned Giving: Your Philanthropic Legacy

Act now for the future.

 

Planned gifts, including gift annuities and charitable trusts, can help you meet your financial and charitable goals while supporting Exeter in the long term.

Bequests and outright gifts, such as qualified charitable distributions from an IRA, afford an easy way to support Exeter and often carry significant tax benefits. 

Include Exeter in your financial planning and you help ensure that our students leave Exeter ready to become the thinkers and creators who will shape our world.

Bequests

Naming Exeter in your will costs nothing today, can be changed during your lifetime, and can be structured to provide support to the Academy after your other financial obligations have been met. 

Gift Annuities

You make a gift to Exeter today ($10,000 minimum), and the Academy will then pay you fixed, guaranteed income for your lifetime. An immediate tax deduction lowers the actual cost of the gift. You can choose an immediate or a deferred annuity.  

Charitable Remainder Trusts

A Charitable Remainder Trust ($100,000 minimum) provides you with quarterly income, an immediate tax deduction, and can be funded with cash or appreciated securities. 

IRA/Retirement Plan Beneficiary Designations

Consider making Exeter a full or partial beneficiary of your IRA or retirement account. Distributions from qualified retirement accounts to Exeter pass free of both income and estate tax.

Charitable Lead Trusts

Make a current gift to Exeter while establishing a significant gift to children or grandchildren to be realized at a future date. A properly structured CLT can reduce estate and gift taxes and eliminate tax on asset appreciation.
