There are many planned gifts that won’t affect your existing financial resources but will have a significant impact on Lancaster Bible College.
Gifts by Will or Trust
A charitable gift from your estate is a favored method of giving that enables you to achieve your financial goals and benefit LBC.
Naming Us in Your Assets
While most assets transferred through a will, retirement plans and life insurance policies are governed by a separate document, called a beneficiary designation.
The IRA Gift (QCD)
The IRA charitable rollover (also called the Qualified Charitable Distribution, or QCD) is a great way to make a tax-free gift to Lancaster Bible College.
Life Income Gifts
Support LBC while generating income for yourself and your family. Learn how these gifts allow you to achieve both of these goals.
Charitable Lead Trust
Make a substantial gift to Lancaster Bible College in the form of fixed annual payments and pass assets to your family or other heirs at reduced tax cost.
Retained Life Estates
Donate your home, farm or a second home to LBC and receive an immediate income tax charitable deduction, while retaining the right to live in your home for the rest of your life. If you itemize your deductions instead of taking the standard deduction you could save significant income taxes. If you cannot use your entire deduction in the year of your gift, you may carry forward all unused deduction for up to five additional years if you are able to itemize in each of those years.
Bargain Sale
Receive immediate cash and make a gift to Lancaster Bible College by selling to us a valuable asset, such as real estate, for less than it is worth.
