Bequests and planned gifts

Many McGill alumni and other friends of the library have chosen to make planned gifts in support of the libraries—that is, the commitment is made in the present, but the gift is realized in the future. A planned gift allows you to make a significant impact at the university while receiving tax benefits. These can include gifts of bequests, life insurance, charitable remainder trusts, retirement funds, gifts-in-kind and gifts of residual interest.

The Bequests and Planned Gifts office is dedicated to inform and assist each donor in matching their philanthropic dreams with the needs of the University. If you are considering a planned gift, it is recommended that you do so in consultation with your financial planner and/or legal counsel.
