What is Planned Giving?

Planned giving is the process of donating planned gifts. Commonly granted through wills or trusts, planned gifts, can be cash, property and much more. Some planned gifts provide life-long income to the donors. Other gift plans use estate and tax planning to provide for charity and heirs in ways that maximize the gift and/or minimize its impact on the donor’s estate. A planned gift is any major gift, made in lifetime or at death as part of a donor’s overall financial and/or estate planning.

Why Make a Planned Gift?

Planning your legacy can help you meet your financial and philanthropic goals. There are a variety of ways to structure a gift that can satisfy both your financial and philanthropic goals while providing you and your family with financial benefits. Some benefits of planned giving include income tax relief, reduced estate taxes, and capital gains tax savings. It is important to satisfy your wishes and keep in mind the potential tax and financial benefits.

Why Support Riordan?

Riordan is dedicated to providing an environment that both challenges and nurtures its students during their high school years. The school offers a college preparatory curriculum that respects the integrity of each individual as a unique human being and is committed to admitting students of varying abilities. In order to continue providing deserving students with the assistance they need to attend Riordan, we rely on the generosity of donors in our community.

Ed Fennelly

A Riordan Legend:
Ed Fennelly

Riordan’s planned giving society honors the memory of Ed Fennelly, a man who demonstrated exceptional vision, organization, and dedication throughout his 40 years of service at the school. Fennelly joined the faculty at Riordan upon its opening in 1949 and influenced the lives of hundreds of students, athletes, and fellow educators and coaches. Read More

There is a great need to raise money for current initiatives and increase the endowment, whether that is through a bequest in a will or living trust, or through a life income gift. In the end, planned gifts are going to secure the future for our boys and the school.
