Ways to Include Atlantic Cape in Your Estate Planning
Bequests
Making a commitment now ensures future students will reap the benefits of your generosity. You can make a deferred gift to Atlantic Cape Community College when you include specific language in your will naming the Atlantic Cape Foundation as a recipient of your planned gift. Your will can include gifts of property (cash, securities, and personal property), a percentage of your estate; or the remainder of your estate after all other bequests have been filled. Your attorney can help you plan a bequest that best suits your needs. Please visit the Bequests page for additional information about different types of bequests and how to arrange your deferred gift.
Endowments and Scholarships
At Atlantic Cape, we believe that access to education transforms lives. The Foundation works with generous donors to create scholarships and endowments that support our students' academic goals and strengthen the future of our region. Scholarships provide direct financial support each year, while endowments create a permanent legacy, ensuring that students benefit from your gift for generations to come. Learn more about how to establish a scholarship or endowment and the ways your support can shape the future of Atlantic Cape on our Scholarships page.
Life Insurance
There are two ways you can give a life insurance policy to Atlantic Cape Community College. You can make the Atlantic Cape Foundation either the beneficiary or the owner of the policy. If your family responsibilities are not as substantial as they once were, then your gift of an insurance policy that is paid up or partially paid-up may be beneficial. Consult your life insurance agent for more details on the various types of insurance gifts you can make to Atlantic Cape Foundation.
Retirement Plans
Naming Atlantic Cape Foundation as a beneficiary for a portion of your retirement savings is another way to make a charitable contribution to the College. The administrator of your IRA, profit-sharing account, or other retirement plan should be able to help you with this.
