Some things, however, have changed considerably since
Miss Masters founded the school in 1877 – income
taxes, capital gains taxes, estate taxes – to
name just a few! If you would like to make a larger
gift than ever before to Dobbs, then please consider
an option that may allow you or your family to avoid
paying some types of taxes and/or perhaps earn extra
income:
- Make a bequest through your will
- Set up a Charitable Remainder Trust
or a Charitable Lead Trust
- Donate a paid insurance policy
that names Dobbs as the beneficiary
- Contribute to Dobbs’ Pooled
Income Fund and earn extra income
There are dedication opportunities
available in Masters Hall or in the new Science and
Technology Center to publicly acknowledge your gift.
For instance, you may wish to name a new classroom or
laboratory to celebrate your life, to memorialize a
loved one, or to commemorate a special occasion, such
as your 50th wedding anniversary or 75th birthday.
Clearly, planned giving is an
important topic that would likely involve family members
and your financial advisor. We would like to provide
you with more details in order to inform you and help
you to make the best decision for you and your family
at the appropriate time. Please call Linda Smith-Shearer, Director of Planned Giving, at 914-409-1015, or send an e-mail to lsmithshearer@themastersschool.com to schedule a confidential phone conversation and share
your ideas, or simply request more information.
