Planned giving, through bequests, gifts of insurance policies, or other methods, ensures that future students will benefit from a Lasallian education at De La Salle. Planned gifts are also an excellent opportunity to honor a loved one or family name, establishing a legacy that will forever be tied to De La Salle. Though the idea of arranging a planned gift may seem complicated, it can be very straightforward. Planned gifts may also help donors achieve financial goals, such as reducing tax liability for the donor and/or their estate. The Brother George Synan Society recognizes those who have included De La Salle in their estate plans. Members and guests gathered in March to hear President John Knight’s vision for De La Salle as well as Senior Tru Wilson’s expression of thanks for their commitment to Catholic, Lasallian education. For more information on how you might establish a legacy through Planned Giving, please contact Chris Czarnik, Director of Advancement at 586.778.3356.
