FROM THE OFFICE OF GIFT PLANNING
Make a Bigger Impact Than You Imagined
by Ericka L. Webb, Executive Director of Gift Planning
Your planned gift is a tangible representation of your belief in BC’s faculty, students, and mission. Truly, gifts like yours help Eagles feel inspired.
A Legacy of Generosity
A recent, generous bequest intention from Esther Chang ’02, JD’07, has deepened her commitment to her alma mater.
CGA: The Gift that Pays You
A gift to Boston College could provide you with an immediate charitable tax deduction, fixed payments for life, and future support to BC!
Q&A with State Street’s Carolyn Freeman
If her name rings a bell, it is probably because you have already established a CGA or trust with BC.
New bill makes IRA transfers to Charitable Gift Annuities possible
Higher CGA rates mean higher income—for you!
CGA is the gift that pays you. And now, payout rates have increased. It’s a great time to consider this gift that benefits you and Boston College.
Discover Your Plan
If you prefer to have a conversation with a member of our team about your options, please contact the Office of Gift Planning at 877-304-SHAW or giftplanning@bc.edu.
Welcome New Members
More than 90 alumni, parents, and friends have shared their planned gift intentions with Boston College since our last issue of Bookmarks. We are proud to recognize their support with membership in the University’s prestigious Shaw Society.
