Giving That Benefits You and McPherson College

There are several types of gift planning options. Many of these plans have benefits for you. These families have enjoyed increased income and generous tax savings. Click on the picture to view a story about your gift options (These donor stories are for illustrative purposes. Each story is based on an actual gift case or a combination of cases.)

Tax-Free Sale
Gene and Carol White were age 55 when they purchased some development land outside of town. They thought it would be a good investment that they could later sell for a higher price. They have owned the property for 10 years and now would like to sell. More on Tax-Free Sale >>.


Fixed Income for Retirement
After working for decades as a pediatrician in a small rural town, Patricia Brown was ready to retire. Patricia owned some stock but was concerned about leaving it in the market where it could go up or down. She needed a secure source of retirement income for the future.
