Planned giving allows you to make a charitable gift that is structured to meet your personal financial, tax, and estate planning objectives.

The Advantages of Planned Giving
A planned gift—whether by a gift from a will, trust, life insurance or other means—is added to the Institute’s endowment fund, which ensures that your gift will help in perpetuity to educate future generations of artists and designers. Every gift counts. Please contact Vice President of Institutional Advancement Malou Monago by email or at 216.421.8016 to start a conversation about the best way for you to make a planned gift.
Planned Giving Methods
There are a variety of techniques and vehicles, such as bequests, life insurance gifts, or IRA gifts, which maximize the value of your gift by helping you reduce income tax, estate tax and/or capital gains tax liabilities. In addition, charitable remainder trusts are structured to provide a life income benefit.
Planned Giving Basics
Malou Monago, Vice President of Institutional Advancement, would be happy to work with you and your advisor to make a gift of restricted support, such as the College's Alumni and Friends General Scholarship Fund. Contact Malou by email or call her at 216.421.8016.
Generous Donors Make an Impact
