Welcome to Planned Giving

Welcome to the planned giving web site of Furman University. We're glad that you're here!

With a little planning, your gift to Furman can help achieve your financial, philanthropic and estate planning goals. Legacy gifts can benefit you by saving taxes, increasing your income and allowing you to pass more on to your heirs, while also providing a meaningful perpetual gift to Furman. Most planned gifts also count toward the Because Furman Matters campaign goal. If you already have made an estate plan that includes a gift to Furman, please let us know so that you will receive credit in the campaign.

We've created this easy-to-understand website to help you find the gift that is right for you. Here you can learn how to plan a gift to Furman. We'll tell you about creative strategies that enhance your families' well being and help Furman's future endowment needs too.

This website is interactive and fun to use:

• If you're already considering certain giving options, simply click on Compare Gift Options and select the gifts you want to learn more about.
• If you're not sure how our gift plans can meet your financial goals, enter the Legacy Planner™, and follow the trail to the gifts that will work best for you. Each option you select leads to more choices, letting you design your own gift plan.


• Request a personalized gift illustration from us that details your plan, read our most recent Tip of the Day, and refer to the FAQ's and Glossary sections.

Welcome! We hope you enjoy the site.
