    Beneficiary Designation Gifts

    Make a Future Gift of Retirement Assets

    Donating part or all of your unused retirement assets, such as your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), pension or other tax-deferred plan, is an excellent way to make a gift to Lycoming College.

    If you are like most people, you probably will not use all of your retirement assets during your lifetime. You can make a gift of your unused retirement assets to help further our mission.

    Benefits of gifts of retirement assets

    • Simplify your planning

    • Receive potential estate tax savings from an estate tax deduction

    How to make a gift of retirement assets

    To leave your retirement assets to Lycoming College, you will need to complete a beneficiary designation form provided by your retirement plan custodian. If you designate Lycoming College as beneficiary, we will benefit from the full value of your gift because your retirement assets will not be taxed at your death. Your estate will benefit from an estate tax charitable deduction for the gift.

    Future gifts from your retirement assets

    Did you know that 40%-60% of your retirement assets may be taxed if you leave them to your heirs at your death? Another option is to leave your heirs assets that receive a step up in basis, such as real estate and stock, and give the retirement assets to Lycoming College. As a charity, we are not taxed upon receiving an IRA or other retirement plan assets. You can use the "Make a Future Gift of Retirement Assets" tool to contact your retirement plan custodian and designate a future gift to Lycoming College.
