University School of Milwaukee, WI

Charitable gift planning options provide donors with a significant way to impact the future University School Milwaukee. Such arrangements can also help you secure your own financial future. Whether you are seeking to satisfy current income and estate tax needs, prepare for retirement, or make low yield assets more productive, a carefully crafted planned gift can be invaluable part of your financial and charitable planning. By working together, donors (in conjunction with their financial advisors) and USM can create meaningful support that reflects the interests of the donor while benefiting the future of students for generations to come.

After viewing our website, we invite your questions about how charitable gift planning might benefit both you and University School. You may contact Jodie Tonner, Director of Major and Planned Giving, at jtonner@usmk12.org or at 414.540.3333.
