Ways to Give

Liquid Assets/Cash

A gift of cash is the most popular way of supporting Gamecock Athletics. Gifts of cash are ordinarily tax-deductible for up to 50% of your adjusted gross income in the year of the contribution (with a five-year carryover for the excess not utilized.)

Securities/Stock Transfers

When you donate securities, you generally do not incur any capital gains tax. You also may be eligible to receive a federal income tax charitable deduction for the full fair market value of publicly traded securities if you have held them for at least a year and a day.

Bequests/Wills

Leaving money to the University through your will or trust is the most popular estate planning option. With a provision in your will, a donor can make a significant gift that may not have been possible during his or her lifetime. It also provides valued support after annual giving ends. An estate-tax charitable deduction for the entire amount of the gift is allowed.

Charitable Gift Annuity

When the gift annuity matures, the balance provides support to the University of South Carolina Educational Foundation. In exchange for a gift of property, marketable securities, or cash, the Foundation will contractually guarantee to pay you and/or another beneficiary guaranteed, fixed payments for life.

Retirement Plan Assets

One may avoid heavy taxation of retirement funds and support Gamecock Athletics by designating the University as a beneficiary of your IRA, 401K or other retirement vehicle. Since these funds have not been taxed, these assets may be the best resource to designate for charitable purposes. Lifetime transfers from IRAs or Roth IRAs are possible for donors who are 70 1/2 years or older.

Charitable Remainder Trust

One may create a trust agreement in which you can transfer assets and retain income. When the payment period ends, the University of South Carolina Educational Foundation receives a gift. Funding the trust with long-term appreciated assets generates no capital gains tax liability on the transfer.
