Bequests How do I plan a bequest to Temple?
Your bequest to Temple University should be thoughtfully planned. Many good planning techniques are available, and you should choose the type of bequest that best suits your personal objectives. For example, your bequest can be a stated dollar amount, or you can bequest specific property to the University. Some of our friends prefer to bequeath a certain percentage of their estate (the amount that remains after paying all debts, costs, and other prior legacies). Whichever form you prefer, you can direct that your bequest be used for the current needs of the University or only for a specific purpose within the University. If you wish, you can indicate that your bequest is to be added to University endowment funds. A bequest of $25,000 will allow us to establish an endowed fund in your name or in the name of whomever you wish to honor. Whatever your objectives, we will be happy to work with you in planning a bequest that will be satisfying, economical and effective in carrying out your wishes in Temple's important mission. With your permission, Temple will recognize your gift through membership in the University's Acres of Diamonds Circle, a distinctive group of fellow alumni/ae and friends who have made a planned gift to the University. For help in planning your bequest to Temple University, contact Jerry Rohrbach, Director of Planned Giving, at 215-204-5741 or 800-822-6957 or e-mail jerry.rohrbach@temple.edu and ask for the publication "Sample Language For Your Will or Revocable Trust." | ||||||||||||
