Funding the Future of Lycoming College with Planned Philanthropy
Generations of Lycoming alumni and friends have made the future of Lycoming College a philanthropic priority by making a planned gift. They have made gifts based on what best meets their needs while providing a gift to the College, in terms of generous gifts during their lifetimes as well as deferred gifts that the College receives after their passing. Lycoming cherishes the trust that donors bestow upon us when making a planned gift, and the College is ever grateful for the generosity of those who have planned for the future of Lycoming and her students.
There are many ways to make a planned gift to Lycoming. The following pages illustrate some of the more common types of planned gifts made by members of The Tower Society, the planned giving society of the College. The information offered herein is intended as a general guide, and you should consult your attorney or tax advisor with respect to the effect planned gifts may have on your particular income and estate tax circumstances. For more information on planned philanthropy at Lycoming, contact Jennifer Wilson, director of development, at 570-321-4395 or via email at wilson@lycoming.edu
