Tip of the Day

Did you know there are creative ways to support the University of South Carolina or one of its affiliated foundations? Ways in which the University of South Carolina or one of its affiliated foundations, you, and your loved ones all benefit at the same time?

Such giving techniques are called "planned gifts," because with thoughtful planning, you create win-win solutions for you and the University of South Carolina or one of its affiliated foundations. For example:

You can make a gift that costs nothing during your lifetime.
You can give stock and realize larger tax savings.
You can get a monthly payment for life in return for your gift.
You can donate your house, continue to live there, and get a tax break all at the same time.
