When it comes to making a long-term impact at The University of Alabama School of Law, there are many giving options to choose from. For more information on how your planned gift can make a difference, please contact the Law School Advancement Office at (205) 348-5752 or email one of our Development Officers: Caroline Strawbridge or Jason Wear.
Will or Living Trust
A gift through a will or living trust is one of the easiest gifts you can make, and it can create a lasting impact on the future of the School of Law. Your estate planning attorney can include a provision in your will that could list a specific asset, a dollar amount, or a percentage of your estate. A bequest could also be made from the residual of your estate after all gifts have been made to your heirs.
Beneficiary Designation
One of the simplest long-range gift arrangements is to designate the School of Law as beneficiary of all or a portion of your IRA, other retirement account, or life insurance policy. Changing a beneficiary is usually quite simple and can be handled through your retirement plan administrator or your life insurance company.
Charitable Gift Annuity
A charitable gift annuity is a simple contract between you and the Capstone Foundation at The University of Alabama. You make a gift of cash or securities, and in return the University agrees to pay you and/or another person a specific amount for the rest of your life or lives. You may direct the remainder of your gift to support the program(s) in the School of Law that you specify.
