Gift of Retirement Assets

How it works

You name Notre Dame as the beneficiary of your IRA, 401(k) or other qualified plan.

After your lifetime, the residue of your plan passes to Notre Dame tax-free.

Benefits

  • You can avoid both income AND estate tax due on the remainder left in your retirement account by leaving it to Notre Dame.
  • Give the most-taxed asset in your estate to Notre Dame, and leave more favorably taxed property to your heirs.
  • You continue to receive retirement benefits during your lifetime.
  • You can change the beneficiary at your discretion.
