Why Give?
Planned giving allows you to make a meaningful impact on York College's future while potentially providing financial benefits for you and your loved ones. By including York College in your estate plans or exploring other planned giving options, you create a lasting legacy of supporting students.
York College prepares its graduates for productive and purposeful lives. As a diverse community of educators and learners, we provide a high-quality, private education that emphasizes personal development, close faculty/student mentoring relationships, and real-world experiences. Your planned gift ensures this transformative education continues far into the future.
Founders Circle
Donors belonging to the Founders Circle (formerly Samuel and Isabel Small Legacy Society) have made an estate or planned gift commitment to York College of Pennsylvania. Members of this Circle are founding and leaving a legacy at YCP through their support.
Planned Giving Options
Contact your financial advisor to discuss the right charitable gift planning vehicles for you.
A charitable gift from your estate is a favored method of giving that enables you to achieve your financial goals, maintain control of your assets, and benefit York College.
Remembering York College of Pennsylvania in your will is a wonderful way for you to make a lasting gift. Large or small, your bequest will make an important contribution to our long-term strength and our ability to carry on with our activities.
We encourage you to work with an experienced attorney to create a will or living trust that accomplishes your goals for your estate.

The IRA charitable rollover (also called the Qualified Charitable Distribution, or QCD) is a great way to make a tax-free gift to York College of Pennsylvania.
If you are age 73 or older, you can fulfill your required minimum distribution (RMD) from your IRA by making a charitable gift, as a direct rollover. This fulfills the RMD requirement and avoids having to pay income tax on the funds. If you are at least 70 1/2, you can make a tax-free gift from your IRA as well.
Contact your IRA administrator for distribution forms and requirements. Completing your gift by December 31 each year will ensure you can secure your annual tax benefits.
A Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA) allows you to make a lasting impact on York College while securing a dependable, fixed income stream for life.
When you establish a gift annuity with YCP, you make a gift of cash or appreciated securities. In return, York College agrees to pay you (and/or a designated loved one) a fixed dollar amount every year for the rest of your life. After your lifetime, the remaining balance directly supports YCP students, programs, or academic initiatives of your choice.
To request a personalized, confidential calculation showing your potential payout rates and tax savings, please contact the Office of Advancement at 717-815-1778 or plannedgiving@ycp.edu. And, as always, please consult your financial advisor.
