Matt Donahue '88, son !=inn, wife Angela In his job as associate director of philanthropy at the Adirondack Nature Conservancy, Matt Donahue '88 has helped several of his organization's supporters arrange for the kind of planned gift that he himself has made to his alma mater. By making Trinity a partial beneficiary of his I RA plan, Donahue says his gift will
"support Trinity programming, while at the same time reducing the impact of estate taxes on my IRA." "My indebtedness to Trinity stems first and foremost from the strong friendships I made there - some of them lifelong - with smart and spirited people. I became a stronger student
there, particularly inspired by English Professor Fred Pfeil. My tutoring experiences in Hartford led me to a 15-year career in teaching and academic administration. I also was a co-captain of the cross country and track teams at Trinity, and I have fond memories of teammates and rigorous training and competition." "I chose this method of planned giving because, as any of my classmates can tell you, I value 'economy of effort.' It merely involved filling out a form that I obtained from my IRA plan's provider. And I think you can make a powerful statement through a targeted gift with one's life earnings to an institution that has personal and societal significance."
