Ways to Give

The University of San Francisco is committed to working with you to explore, plan, and implement a charitable gift plan that will work best for you and your family. Planned giving is the integration of personal, financial, and estate planning goals with lifetime or testamentary charitable giving.  Through careful planning, planned giving can allow a donor to realize substantial benefits while supporting the University of San Francisco.

If you’re new to the concept of planned giving, please click here for an informative brochure, A Guide to Planned Giving.

We hope that after reading the information we have provided on the various planned giving options, you will be motivated to help us continue to “Educate Minds and Hearts to Change the World.”
