Some gifts don’t just support Roberts Wesleyan University - they support you too. These planned giving options create dependable income for life, offer potential tax advantages, and ultimately strengthen the mission you care about most.
Explore the two most popular ways donors partner with Roberts through income-generating gifts.
Charitable Gift Annuities
A simple way to receive fixed payments for life
Give to Roberts and receive fixed payments for life. Simple setup, possible tax benefits, and options to fund with cash, appreciated assets, or IRA dollars.
We wanted steady income in retirement and a way to give back. Our gift annuity let us do both.
Charitable Remainder Trusts
A flexible way to give and receive income
A charitable remainder trust provides ongoing payments and strong tax advantages, especially for appreciated assets or larger estates. Choose a fixed payment (annuity trust) or a percentage that adjusts each year (unitrust).
Our trust gave us income now and impact for years to come.
Why These Gifts Matter
Gifts that pay you back create long-term stability for you and long-term strength for Roberts. They help fund scholarships, faculty support, and mission-centered programs that shape students into courageous, thoughtful leaders.
