Ways to Give to LCSC
Annual Giving provides unrestricted operating
support for LCSC to any of its programs.
These gifts allow the College the greatest
flexibility to direct funding where it is needed
most.
Endowments
Benefiting the College community in
perpetuity, endowment gifts are invested to
generate a steady stream of income for
professorships, scholarships, fellowships,
lectureships, book funds, and many other
purposes. Donors may also create unrestricted
endowments, which produce resources that can be
used where the need is greatest.
Trusts, Estates & Planned Giving
Planned gifts include life-income
opportunities and other financial planning
arrangements that can be beneficial to the donor
and to the College.
We have many opportunities to give. Visit
Giving Opportunities for more details.

numbers. Should you feel uneasy about donating
online, you can call us at 1-208-792-2458. We

Stocks/Securities
Charitable gifts of securities are especially
beneficial for many people due to important
incentives present in our tax system. Many
securities may be worth much more then what you
paid for them. As appreciated property, they can
be very attractive charitable gifts.
Publicly traded securities are usually the
simplest to give, due to the ease of
transferring them and determining their value
for deduction purposes. Closely held stocks may
also be given, but special rules apply. More
information is available on this option.
Many people have discovered that
transferring marketable securities is an easy
way to make a charitable gift to the LCSC
Foundation. Please notify the College
Advancement Office at (208) 792-2458 of your
intended gift.
Memorial and
Honorary
To make a gift in
memory or in honor of someone, attach a note
with your gift that includes the name of the
person you are memorializing or honoring. For
memorial gifts, also include the family contact
name(s) and address(es). For honorary gifts,
include the address of the person you are
honoring. We will send a card to the
family/individual to notify them that you have
made a gift. (The amount of your gift will not
be revealed.)
If a special memorial fund
or honorary fund has already been created in the
person’s name, your gift will be credited to
that account unless you tell us otherwise. If a
special fund has not been created, your gift
will be credited to the designation you
indicate.
Please contact the College
Advancement Office at (208) 792-2458 or
collegeadvancement@lcsc.edu to obtain
further information, or to set up your memorial
or honorary gift.

Tax Advisor
