Planned Giving
Planned gifts have the unparalleled potential to increase the University’s ability to be a force for good in the world, while often affording exceptional financial and tax benefits to our planned gift benefactors.
If you have already included Our Lady’s University in their estate plans, please fill out this form. Sharing these plans does not bind you or your estate but allows Notre Dame to begin honoring your legacy and the intentions of your gift.

A Simple Way to Build Your Legacy The impact of estate gifts by generous benefactors has been central to furthering Notre Dame's mission. Bequests are often a simple way to make an impact by designating Notre Dame as the beneficiary of your retirement assets, such as an IRA, 401(K), 403(B), etc. |
 |
A Gift That Pays You Income By creating a charitable remainder trust with Notre Dame, not only do you create a lasting gift to Notre Dame, but you also receive regular payments over the course of your life or during a fixed term of not more than 20 years. |
 |
Reduce Your Taxes and Increase Your Impact Your IRA can be used as a powerful philanthropic tool. If you are 70 ½ years of age or older and have a traditional individual retirement account (IRA), you can reduce your taxes and make an immediate impact at Notre Dame this year through an IRA Charitable Rollover gift. |
 |
Streamline Your Charitable Giving The University of Notre Dame Donor Advised Fund is a powerful philanthropic vehicle that leverages the Notre Dame Endowment, one of the best-performing endowments, to maximize the impact of your gift to Notre Dame as well as gifts to other qualified charitable organizations. |
