Planned Giving
What is Planned Giving?
Making a planned gift to Rowland Hall offers you a flexible and easy way to combine “giving to the school” with personal/family financial planning.
While each planned gift is different in nature and structure, these gifts can provide significant financial or tax benefits to the donor.
Ultimately, planned giving is about planning for the future: yours, your children’s, your grandchildren’s, and the school’s.
"Leave a Legacy"
Rowland Hall has been the fortunate beneficiary of a number of gifts from alumni and/or supporters who have planned ahead and either made a lasting gift through their estate plans or via other life-income generating tools. Contributors who have communicated their plans to the school join their colleagues as members of the Leave a Legacy Society.
