Planned Giving to Salisbury School

You believe in the work of Salisbury School, and the quality of education that we provide to boys today and tomorrow. You want to make a generous gift, but are concerned about that gift could impact your current financial needs and your family.

There are financial tools you can use to plan your gift to Salisbury so that it returns benefits to you and also to your family.

• You don't have to use cash to make your gift — you can give appreciated securities instead, and use an asset that costs you less than the tax deduction you'll get for it today.
  
  
• You can make a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime — make us a beneficiary of your will or trust, or a beneficiary of your retirement plan, and leave your cash flow and current financial planning uninterrupted.
  
  
• You can make Salisbury a partner in your giving — you can deed us your home but continue to live there, you can sell us property at a charitable discount, and you can make a gift that pays you lifetime income.
  
  
• You may be holding assets that would benefit Salisbury more than they do you — such as a life insurance policy that you no longer need, a parcel of real estate like a second home or undeveloped land, or a collection of books or artwork that you no longer have room to display.

These tools are called planned gifts, and this website is the place to learn more about them. Where to start? If you already know something about your giving options, click on Ways to Give and go right to the planned gifts that you want to read more about. If you're not sure how a gift can meet both your charitable and personal goals, first go to Benefits of Giving to learn how planned gifts work and how they can stretch your giving ability.
