Planned Gifts
Increasingly, donors are finding planned gifts to be an attractive way to make gifts to Colorado Rocky Mountain School. This can not only bring the satisfaction of making a meaningful gift, it can often offer the donor tax savings and additional income. Planned gifts help to build CRMS endowments, thus providing the resources to assure continued excellence into the future. The Holdens shared their dream of a special place where students could discover their potential, contribute to their community, and participate thoughtfully in the world.
A donor may make a gift to CRMS and receive direct tax and financial benefits. The benefits may include an immediate charitable-income tax deduction, or increased income for life for the donor and/or the donor’s spouse compared to existing investments, in addition to Leaving a Legacy that will impact lives
positively in your name.
The Holden Circle includes all those who have included CRMS in their estate plans. Here you will find our complete booklet on planned gifts.
