Many donors discover that they can make a more substantial gift to Mills through deferred, or "planned," giving than they can during their lifetime. Including a bequest to Mills in your will or living trust creates a significant legacy and will help keep the College strong for future generations.

Another type of planned gift is a charitable life income gift in which you make a future gift to Mills and receive income for life. You may enjoy tax benefits for such contributions, enhancing your own financial situation even as you make a lasting contribution to Mills. 

Staff in Mills' Office of Institutional Advancement can provide details about the many forms a planned gift may take and the tax advantages associated with each. They can also share examples of bequest language.

For more information, please contact April Hopkins, MFA ’03, toll-free at 877.PG.MILLS (877.746.4557) or planagift@mills.edu.

Inquiries put you under no obligation whatsoever. Mills College does not offer tax advice.
