Planned Giving

Bequests

FreeWill can also help you plan beneficiaries for assets that may not be included in your will. Non-probate assets such as an IRA, a 401(k), and any additional accounts need to be planned for separately. Using this online tool (opens to partner page), you can get started logging all of your assets today. 

Have you already made a gift to Lansing Community College Foundation in your estate plans? Please let us know by filling out this form so that we can say thank you and keep our records up to date!   

Qualified Charitable Distributions

Donors 70.5 or older with a traditional IRA are eligible to make a tax-free donation to LCC directly from their IRAs. If you are 72 or older and have to take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), these gifts can count towards your RMD while being tax-beneficial.

You can use our online tool (opens to partner page) to make your tax-free donation online, print out the forms you need to complete the gift offline, or learn more about the benefits of giving from your IRA.

Gifts of Stock

Many donors prefer to make gifts of appreciated stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or exchange-traded funds because it can have a large impact on our mission while maximizing potential tax benefits by avoiding paying tax on capital gains.
