In 1995, the University of Pennsylvania founded the Charles Custis Harrison Society as a way to provide ongoing thanks and to acknowledge the generosity of all who have named Penn as a beneficiary of a will, living trust, retirement plan, or life insurance policy, or have set up a life income gift that benefits Penn in the future.
There are many ways to include Penn GSE in your estate plans. Penn’s Office of Gift Planning can work with you and your advisors to make sure your personal planning and charitable giving objectives are met in a way that is fulfilling and maximizes the benefits of available tax incentives.
Making a bequest to Penn GSE costs nothing now and can enable you to make a larger gift than you might have thought possible. It offers substantial tax benefits and can easily be changed to address your changing needs. Learn more
You can also make a gift through your retirement plan or life insurance policy, by naming “The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, for the benefit of the Graduate School of Education” on the change of beneficiary form for the amount or percentage you wish to donate.
By funding a gift annuity, you are guaranteed annual payments for life, and tax benefits, with the remainder to support Penn GSE. Penn offers multiple structures and plans—including Charitable Gift Annuities, Deferred Charitable Gift Annuities, and the Penn Impact Annuity—to fit your needs.
