1867
SOCIETY
I
n the 1990s, the Storm King School Board of Trustees established the
1867
Society
as a means
to recognize those individuals who have included the school in their estate plans. By designating the
school as a beneficiary of a will or living trust, or by including the school as a beneficiary in a life-income gift
arrangement, these farsighted alumni, parents and friends invested in Storm King’s long-term health and
prosperity.
This year, we are taking steps to formalize this august group of SKS donors so that we can ensure they are
acknowledged on a regular and permanent basis.
If you have already included the school in your estate plans, we encourage
you to inform the school of your intended gift. Those doing so during
2012–13
will be recognized as
Charter Members of the
1867
Society
,
and will be acknowledged and honored by the
school at the Society’s upcoming inaugural event.
In addition to simple bequest intentions, we can provide information on a
number of life-income gift opportunities for those seeking to:
•
Help provide long-term prosperity for the School
•
Earn a current tax deduction for a future gift
•
Earn a guaranteed lifetime income
•
Reduce or eliminate capital gains tax on appreciated securities
•
Reduce or eliminate estate tax
As you can see, many planned gift opportunities exist.
