There are many ways to support Savannah State University, but one of the most meaningful and impactful is through planned giving. This approach allows donors of all ages and income levels to maximize their legacy, often giving more than they ever imagined possible.
Planned giving includes tools that may offer lifelong income, along with significant tax benefits for you and your loved ones. One of the most common methods is a bequest—naming Savannah State University in your will, trust, retirement account, or life insurance policy.
You may choose to direct your planned gift to any area that aligns with your values. If you already have an endowment, consider growing it through a bequest, enhancing both its principal and long-term impact.
While a bequest intention is not legally binding, it provides the University with the opportunity to plan for the future and recognize your generosity in a meaningful way. Anonymity is always respected upon request.
To assist you, the Division of University Advancement offers an estate planning toolkit and sample bequest language.
Together, we are building an unlimited future—one where opportunity grows and degree attainment is always within reach.
