Gifts in a will or by beneficiary designation are two easy ways to help young Americans think and live better for years to come — and they don’t cost anything now.
You can learn more about these special opportunities in our free brochure, A Simple Guide to Creating or Updating Your Estate Plans, and other complimentary planning resources. These resources are just a click away!
Gifts in a Will
A gift in your will or trust is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to ensure America’s values live on for generations to come. Once you’ve provided for the ones you love, we hope you’ll consider making PragerU part of your lasting legacy.
A gift in your will is one of the easiest ways to create your legacy and offers the following benefits:
- Lasting Impact: Your gift will create a legacy of preserving the ideas that made America great.
- Flexible: You can alter your gift or change your mind at any time and for any reason.
- No Cost: It costs you nothing to give in this way now.
Four simple, “no-cost-now” ways to give in your will
General gift
Residuary gift
Specific gift
Contingent gift
You can combine these no-cost options. For example, you might consider leaving a specific percentage (such as 50%) of the residual to PragerU, contingent on your spouse’s survival.
Create Your Will for Free
Through PragerU’s partnership with GiftWise, you can create your will online at no cost.
Through this simple process, you can tailor your will to meet your needs, comply with your state’s requirements, and include a gift to PragerU.
Gifts by Beneficiary Designation
It’s easy to put your bank accounts, retirement funds, savings bonds, and more to use in fueling America’s revival — and it costs you nothing now. By naming PragerU as a beneficiary of these assets, you can power our mission for years to come and establish your personal legacy of truth, liberty, and love for our great nation.
Potential benefits of gifts by beneficiary designation:
- Reduce or eliminate taxes
- Reduce or avoid probate fees
- No cost to you now to give
- Create your legacy with PragerU
Types of Gifts
Retirement plan assets
You can simply name PragerU as a beneficiary of your retirement plan to help fund exclusive digital media, technology, and edu-tainment.
Life insurance policies
You can name PragerU as a beneficiary of all or a portion of your life insurance policy. With this gift arrangement, PragerU will receive the proceeds of your policy after your lifetime. You can change your beneficiary at any time and may reduce your estate taxes.
Bank or brokerage accounts
This is one of the easiest gifts to give and one of the most useful in accomplishing your philanthropic goals. The next time you visit your bank, you can name PragerU (Tax ID: 27-1763901) as the beneficiary of a checking or savings bank account, a certificate of deposit (CD), or a brokerage account. When you do, you’ll take a powerful step toward shaping young minds for generations to come.
Funds remaining in your donor-advised fund
What remains in a donor-advised fund is governed by the contract you completed when you created your fund. When you name PragerU as a “successor” of your account or a portion of your account value, you enable our resources to remain free for everyone.
How to update a beneficiary designation:
Simply contact your bank, retirement plan administrator, insurance company, or other financial institution to request a beneficiary designation form. You may also be able to log in to your account and update your beneficiaries online.
Please use our legal name: Prager University Foundation
Include our tax identification number: 27-1763901
Please let us know so we can ensure that your wishes are carried out.
