The Lawrence-Downer Legacy Circle

The Lawrence-Downer Legacy Circle recognizes those who are making a commitment to the continued traditions and excellence at Lawrence, donors who support Lawrence through planned giving options. Gifts may be channeled to specific areas within the college or left to be used where needed most. Legacy Circle giving options include:

  • Bequests
  • Living Trusts
  • Charitable Gift Annuities
  • Real Estate
  • Life Insurance

If you plan to make a charitable gift to Lawrence University through your will, please let us know. We would like the opportunity to thank you for your generosity. Those who have made such commitment and have informed the Office of Major and Planned Giving of that arrangement automatically become members of the Legacy Circle.

Recognition of your gift can encourage others to do the same, however, if you prefer to remain anonymous your gift will be kept completely confidential. (We will not recognize your gift without your permission.) Whatever the case, we will honor your wishes, because your support means so much to Lawrence.

Legacy Circle gifts allow alumni and friends to avoid estate and inheritance taxes while retaining lifetime use of their assets. These commitments have been and will continue to be a significant element in Lawrence University’s continued success.
