As a service to prospective donors, this section allows you to explore which type of gift may be right for you and compare similarities and differences among gifts. You may also model various types of gifts by using our gift calculator, and reference all of our printable brochures in one place. As you gather information, we would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Bentley’s Office of Gift Planning provides complimentary, confidential information and assistance to advisors and donors. We would be pleased to assist you in any way we can, whether you are simply looking for general information about charitable giving, considering options on behalf of a particular client or need our assistance in the administration of a bequest or other type of planned gift.

Tax laws can change from year to year, often with implications for charitable giving. Here, we note the major provisions that may affect your charitable gift decisions. Please note that the Office of Gift Planning does not provide official tax or legal advice, and we encourage you to consult your advisors for applicability to your own situation.
