Charitable Planned Gifts (Tax-Wise Giving)

Donors may structure a gift so that it provides income for the donor, spouse or other designated beneficiary while the gift also supports the Medical College at a later date. This allows the donor to make a "deferred gift," receive a tax deduction and receive income from the gift for life.

1) Testamentary Gifts
One of the most popular ways of giving is to leave cash, property or appreciated securities to a charitable institution, while at the same time supporting your family members, friends and others who have made a difference in your life.

2) Life Income Gifts
Giving a life income gift to the Medical College of Wisconsin helps donors meet three important goals: maintain a continuing source of income, provide an opportunity to receive tax benefits, and support the Medical College of Wisconsin.
