Planned Giving

Sometimes a simple and elegant gesture can speak volumes. Bequests are among the simplest of planned gifts, but their impact on students at the Kansas City Art Institute is immeasurable.

Simply put, they are gifts of money or personal property handed down or "bequeathed" to another party through an individual's estate plan. Large and small, bequests enable us to build endowments, provide scholarships, erect new buildings and contribute to our community.

Bequests to the Kansas City Art Institute allow donors to leave behind a legacy and play a lasting role inthe lives of future generations of young artists. The impact lasts beyond the conor's living years, and when structured correctly, a bequest can have positive tax implications for the donor and his or her family.
