Your Legacy<br />

Through a planned gift, you have the unique opportunity to support these amazing<br />

students and remarkable faculty for generations to come. Realized planned gifts have<br />

led to the endowment of hundreds of scholarships, professorships and faculty chairs.<br />

The <strong>USF</strong> Foundation supports the entire <strong>USF</strong> System, and is dedicated to ensuring<br />

that your gift grows in value over time. As it does so, your legacy will grow as well,<br />

helping more students and spurring more research as the years go by.<br />

Other benefits of giving through your estate plan include the following:<br />

• You retain control of your assets during your lifetime – you can<br />

modify your bequest as circumstances change<br />

• You can take advantage of tax laws that will lower<br />

the estate tax burden on your survivors<br />

• You can make a larger impact through a larger gift<br />

than may have been possible in your lifetime<br />
