Gifts of Insurance
A gift of your life insurance policy is an excellent way to make a gift to Whittier College. If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, consider making a gift of your insurance policy to Whittier College. 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
- Receive additional income tax deductions each year that you make additional contributions so that Whittier College can pay the annual insurance premiums
- At death, the proceeds of your policy will be paid to our organization and we will use the insurance proceeds to continue our charitable work
