Gifts Anyone Can Afford
Did you know there are ways to support Northeastern University that don't affect your current lifestyle or your family's security?
You can support Northeastern with gifts that don't impact the way you live. You can designate Northeastern University to receive estate assets in the future, or you can make immediate gifts to us of assets that are "out of sight and out of mind."
We call these "Gifts Anyone Can Afford" because anyone can make them now without impacting their cash flow, lifestyle, or family security.
The Benefits
- You can make a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime.
- You can make a gift that leaves your cash flow and current financial planning unchanged.
- You don't have to use cash to make your gift; you can "buy low and give high" by making your gift with appreciated securities instead.
- You can give an asset you no longer need or want.
