Welcome to your resource for charitable gift planning! King's College has grown and developed into the institution it is today in large part because of the generosity of friends, alumni and alumnae. Planned giving is a term we use to define a large gift that typically involves the overall planning of one's estate. We've created this easy-to-understand Web site to help you consider possibilities for including King's in your legacy. There are many easy giving options from which you can choose—strategies that have the potential to enhance your personal well being, as well as King's College. If you're not sure where to begin, try our Build Your Gift planner. By answering a few basic questions, this interactive tool steps you through the process of narrowing down your choices. It's fun and easy to use! If you already have gift options in mind, click on Compare Gifts to see how your choices match up or click on eBrochures to request specific information on a planning option. If you get lost, rest assured that we're always here to help. Simply contact Frank H. Oliver, Ed.D. at 570-208-5882 or frankoliver@kings.edu with any questions. Happy dreaming!
