Gifts of Insurance
A gift of your life insurance policy is another creative way to make a gift to Susquehanna University. If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, consider making a gift of your insurance policy to Susquehanna University. For example, you may have purchased a policy to provide for minor children and they are now financially independent adults.
Benefits of gifts of life insurance
- Receive a charitable income tax deduction
- If Susquehanna University retains the policy to maturity, you receive additional tax deductions by making annual gifts so that we can pay the premiums
- If Susquehanna University cashes in the policy, you will be able to see firsthand how your gift supports our university's mission
- If we retain the policy to maturity, or you name us as a beneficiary, once the policy matures, the proceeds of your policy will be paid to Susquehanna so that we can use the proceeds to further our mission
How to make a gift of life insurance
To make a gift of life insurance, please contact your life insurance provider, request a beneficiary designation form from the insurer and include Susquehanna University as the beneficiary of your policy.
