Planned Giving


The 1866 Legacy Society recognizes those alumni, parents, and friends who have demonstrated their commitment to Wooster's future through life-income gifts and bequests. Anyone who has included Wooster in his or her will, has named the College as a recipient of proceeds from a retirement account, has signed an Estate Note, or has established a charitable life-income gift arrangement to benefit Wooster is eligible for membership.

Our thoughtful planning now will ensure that students of future generations will benefit from the excellent education in the liberal arts and sciences that The College of Wooster has always provided.
