Making a Planned Gift
You can support UCSF by making a planned gift. Each type of planned gift offers a distinct set of advantages. Some plans provide income for life. Others result in an immediate income tax deduction. Still others enable you to minimize capital gains tax. Follow the links below to read more about each type of gift, or download the comparison chart, which can help you weigh the benefits and decide which giving plan is right for you.

Whether your estate is large or small, you have the power to make a lasting, significant contribution to UCSF. By providing one-time or ongoing support for your preferred program, planned gifts enable you to meet your personal financial needs as you help the University unravel the complex pathways of disease, train new generations of health-care leaders and heal those who are sick.
