The transformative gift will support programs within the School of Nursing and Health Sciences.听听

91直播鈥檚 School of Nursing and Health Sciences will benefit from the generosity of a $5 million planned estate gift by donors who wish to remain anonymous.  

This is not the first time the donors, an alumnus and their spouse, have made meaningful impacts on both the University and its students through gifts. Their most recent commitment names La 91直播 as one of three organizations that will benefit from their estate after both have passed.  

鈥淭hese generous benefactors understand the value and the power of higher education. They also believe it is important that the La 91直播 experience be possible for future Explorers,鈥� Vice President for University Advancement, Freddie Pettit, said. 鈥淭heir philanthropy is an inspiring example of investing in La 91直播鈥檚 mission and students to ensure bright days ahead for the long term.鈥�  

This most recent commitment is one of many that the University has been fortunate enough to receive in recent months through Planned Giving initiatives.  Examples of planned gifts that have benefitted La 91直播 in recent months include:

• Qualified Charitable Distributions from donors鈥� retirement accounts (such as IRAs, 401(k)s, and 403(b)s) to fund student scholarships;
• The sharing of updated planned gift documents that reflect the increased value of La 91直播鈥檚 expected benefit from a donor鈥檚 estate; and
• A bequest in a will gifting a residential property to the University (with the flexibility for the University to liquidate the property and allocate the funds received to support La 91直播 students).

Planned Giving is a meaningful way for donors to help shape the future of the University by including La 91直播 in their financial or estate plans.
