Bequests to University College
Leave a lasting legacy to UC once your needs and those of your loved ones have been met.
Setting up a bequest in your will is easy and can be done with the assistance of a UC Advancement team member. Our team can provide sample wording for you to consider, tailored to your interests and goals as well as College priorities. We can also discuss tax benefits and ways to recognize your thoughtful generosity.
Benefits of Bequests
- You have use of the asset during your lifetime
- Reduces taxes owed by your estate
- Revocable and can be modified if your financial circumstances change
