Overview

The Evergreen Society was established to honor all those who have taken the special step of including the College in their long-term plans through a bequest provision, life-income gift, or other deferred giving arrangement.

The Evergreen Society celebrates and promotes the tradition of generosity, connectedness, and trust at Le Moyne. If you would like to learn more about ways to include the College in your plans, please contact us for a confidential consultation.

How to Join

Membership application form

The following types of commitments, confirmed in writing and subject to certain restrictions, qualify you for membership in the Evergreen Society:

• a bequest provision in your Will or revocable trust;
• a life-income gift that names the College as a remainder beneficiary, such as a charitable remainder unitrust or annuity trust, a charitable gift annuity, or a pooled income fund gift;
• a charitable lead trust that provides income to the College for a donor’s lifetime or a term of years;
• a gift or assignment of qualified retirement plan assets, such as an IRA, 401(k) or 403(b);
• a gift of life insurance;
• certain other planned gifts.
  

If you have already included the College in a bequest or other planned gift, we hope you will let us know. Your willingness to be listed as a member of the Evergreen Society encourages others to follow your example. We acknowledge and respect those who wish to remain anonymous, but we urge you to let us know of your plans on a confidential basis in any case. It supports the College’s planning for the future. Of course, if you have not yet included the College in your plans and you would like to explore the best options for you and your family, do not hesitate to contact us. We would be glad to assist you on a confidential basis and without any obligation.
