How Should You Plan a Gift?

Good News! You can now make a tax-free gift from your IRA! Click here.

You believe in the work of Bellarmine University, and you want to ensure that we continue to educate generations of students in the Catholic liberal arts tradition, perhaps to be able to receive the education you were afforded. You want your gift to make a difference for Bellarmine, but are concerned about your own future financial needs and those of your family.

Bellarmine deeply appreciates you considering us in your plans. We want to work with you to make your gift rewarding for you and for us, and we hope you'll use the financial tools on this site to plan your gift so it returns benefits to you. You might consider that:

  • You don't have to use cash to make your gift.

  • You may be holding assets that would benefit us more than they do you.

  • You can make a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime.

  • You can make us a partner in your giving.

These tools are called planned gifts.
