More Gift Options to Benefit You and Johns Hopkins
Appreciated securities or Mutual fund shares
Enjoy double benefits: receive an immediate income tax deduction on the fair market value of the shares that you have held for at least one year, and avoid capital gains tax. The procedure for transferring mutual fund shares is established by the mutual fund company and can vary in processing time and method.
Retirement assets
Naming the Bloomberg School as a beneficiary of your retirement plan is one of the most efficient ways to support our future. If you’re 70 ½ or older, you can transfer assets from a traditional IRA directly to Johns Hopkins to make an immediate gift and/or a one-time distribution to establish a charitable gift annuity.
Real Estate
Donating property to the Bloomberg School can provide important tax advantages while eliminating the responsibility of property management. Leave a legacy for the future.
Will or Trust
With thoughtful planning, you can leave a meaningful legacy to the Bloomberg School. Popular ways to make a legacy gift are through a will or trust. Your gift can support any area of the Bloomberg School, augment your current giving, and even establish an endowed fund.
Charitable Gift Annuity or Charitable Remainder Trust
Receive income, an immediate income tax deduction, and favorable treatment of capital gains if you donate appreciated securities.
Supporters who establish a life income gift or share with us that the Bloomberg School is in their estate plans are welcomed into the Johns Hopkins Legacy Society.
