Gifts of Stock: Donating appreciated securities is an excellent way to support Ranken because it offers you added benefits: you avoid paying capital gains taxes by donating directly to Ranken and you can deduct the “fair market value” of the stock on the date the stock was given to the College.
Bequests: A bequest is perhaps the easiest and most effective way to make a planned gift to Ranken. Next time you update your Will, you can specify that a specific amount be given to Ranken, or you can choose a percentage of your estate, of if you prefer, you can make Ranken a contingent beneficiary.
Gifts of Life Insurance: If you have an existing policy with an accumulated cash value, and you no longer need the coverage, you can gift the policy to Ranken by designating the College as the beneficiary or co-beneficiary.
In-Kind Gifts: For some donors, in-kind gifts (equipment, tools, supplies) are a valuable way to make a contribution. Donations of new equipment and technology offer budget relief and save the College money.
Tribute Gifts: You can honor a family member or friend on their graduation from Ranken or perhaps on their birthday or anniversary. If you wish, you can remember a loved one with a memorial gift. A Tribute card will be sent to family members or friends acknowledging your thoughtfulness.
Other Gifts: Gifts of real estate and personal property are also accepted pending a review and assessment process to determine if such gifts meet acceptance guidelines.
For further information on these, or other types of gifts, please contact the Development Office at (314) 286-3674 or development@ranken.edu.
