Do your wish you could do more for Trinity students, but your financial circumstances make it impractical? Perhaps you can realize your goals – for both you and Trinity – with a “blended gift.”
Trinity provides a number of charitable gift options that can be assembled, like the pieces of a puzzle, to create a gift plan that makes sense for your unique situation. Once we know your philanthropic and financial priorities, we can help put the pieces of the puzzle together. We call this a “blended gift plan,” because you will use various gift vehicles to strategically achieve your desired outcome.
For example, perhaps you would like to endow a scholarship to honor a loved one or favorite professor, but your current financial resources preclude a contribution of $100,000 to fund an endowed scholarship. A three-part blended gift could make it possible: a pledge of $5,000 or more per year to provide immediate scholarships; along with a $50,000 deferred charitable gift annuity to provide payments to you as a part of your retirement plan; and finally, a commitment in your estate to fully fund your endowed scholarship.
This example is only one of the many ways to fund an endowed scholarship. We can tailor the blended gift plan to your unique circumstances and financial priorities.
Linda Minoff, Trinity’s Director of Gift Planning, would welcome the opportunity to explore how a blended gift plan can benefit you and Trinity.
