Planned Giving
Jane and Leland Stanford envisioned the university they created as a memorial to their only child, Leland Stanford Jr., and they funded their dream through a combination of outright and planned gifts.
Today the decision to make a planned gift remains a signal of a deep commitment to Stanford and often reflects a desire to create a philanthropic legacy that will endure in perpetuity.
We have provided brief descriptions of Bequests, Life Income Gifts and Noncash Gifts. Additional information—including planned gift calculators, frequently asked questions about planned giving, and more—can be found on our main Planned Giving web site.
