Ways to Support NHTI
Planned Giving
Bequests
For many donors, a gift made through a will is perhaps the most comfortable and easiest way to provide meaningful support. Donors can designate a specific dollar amount or specific property, or a percentage of the residue of their estate. They may benefit a specific College program or its general operations. Ask for a copy of NHTI's Your Gift for Tomorrow brochure for details.
Retirement Funds
Residual retirement funds are often the most highly taxed estate assets and are often overlooked as an option for funding a bequest. Your heirs may actually benefit when you chose to assign pension fund residuals rather than other estate assets to fulfill a charitable bequest.
Life Insurance
There are several ways to give life insurance to the College. You may give a fully paid policy naming the College as the beneficiary. You may transfer ownership of a policy that is not fully paid and continue to pay the premiums, or you may purchase a new policy and name the College as owner and beneficiary. Life insurance is useful for asset replacement when you give other assets to the College. You use a portion of the income you generate from tax savings to purchase a fully paid insurance policy that names your heirs as beneficiaries.

Memorial and Celebratory Gift Opportunities
A memorial gift is a meaningful way to honor the memory of someone who has touched your life. Families can specify in funeral notices that memorial contributions be made to the College. Gifts, perhaps celebrating or commemorating the birthday or anniversary of loved one each year, can provide important support for the College and its programs.
