Assets You Can Give
Just as you have many choices on how to make a gift—bequest, charitable lead trust, wealth replacement trust, etc.—you also have several choices on what to give. No matter how or what you choose to give, your gift will stand as a lasting symbol of your strong commitment to the future of Syracuse University.
Cash
Maximize your charitable deduction and deliver immediate benefits
to Syracuse University.
Appreciated Securities
The IRS allows you one of its most significant tax breaks for gifts
of appreciated securities.
Real Estate
Make a substantial gift to Syracuse University through
a transfer of residential, commercial, or undeveloped real estate.
Retirement Plans
The balance of your retirement plan may be worth more when donated
to Syracuse University than to your heirs.
Life Insurance
- New Policy - You can fund a future gift for us from your income instead of capital.
- Paid-Up Policy - Give us a policy whose coverage you no longer need.
- Gift-Replacement - Create a life-income gift for yourself; use insurance proceeds to restore the value of your gift to benefit your heirs.
Personal Property
Donate books, artwork, or equipment and secure an income
tax deduction.
Business Interests
Give Syracuse University an interest in a closely-held
or family business.
Partnership Interests
Support Syracuse University by transferring an interest
in a real estate or oil-and-gas partnership.
