Planned Giving: Jesuit’s Bequest Society

Those who remember Jesuit in their wills, bequests and other estate gifts such as life insurance, annuities, remainder trusts, etc. are vital to preserving the future of Jesuit High School.

Bequest Society members include those who have indicated in writing that they have made provisions for Jesuit High School in their estate plans. Unless otherwise directed by the donor, estate gifts are placed in one of Jesuit’s endowment funds where the principal is never spent. Instead, the funds earn interest, which provides income to Jesuit High School in perpetuity, helping generations yet to be.

In addition to being a meaningful gift to Jesuit High School, “planned giving” helps to reduce or eliminate taxes on capital gains and federal estate taxes. Please check with your financial planner or accountant for more details on arranging for a planned gift, and the personal benefits associated with that charitable gift.

If you have made arrangements for a gift to Jesuit in your estate planning and wish to be listed as a member of the Bequest Society, please contact the Development Office at (813) 877-5344, ext. 256, or email

All Bequest Society members are also listed each year in Jesuit High School’s President’s Annual Report.
