Giving to Newport
The choice of giving is a personal one that must take into consideration a donor's objectives, obligations and financial plans. Many alumni and friends of Newport College make personal gifts of non-cash assets, which, because of the additional tax benefits, often make it possible for them to make even larger gifts than they had originally considered.
Some individuals may wish to consider other long-term gift arrangements, such as life-income gifts and bequests, as part of an overall financial and estate plan.
