Make a Gift to UB in Your Will or Trust
See how adding a gift to your will, trust or as a beneficiary designation can add to your legacy — and provide peace of mind.
When you make a bequest to UB, you decide how it will be used, including:
- Supporting students through scholarships and opportunities
- Advancing world-changing research
- Making your community more resilient
Whatever you choose, we’re proud to be good stewards of your generosity.
When you provide a bequest to UB, you’ll get:
- Flexibility — you decide how to distribute your estate and which causes you want to support, and you’ll still have the option to change your plans in the future
- Potential tax benefits
- Choice — you can designate a specific amount or a percentage of your estate to UB, and decide whether to give cash, stock, real estate or other assets
- Control — you still work with your financial and legal advisors to structure a gift that makes sense for you and your family
- Because advisors are not always in a position to notify UB of planned gifts, by you letting UB know about your plans, you help ensure your intentions are clearly understood and fulfilled.
- We want to make sure you’re properly recognized for your thoughtful planning.
