Cash
The most common gift made to Orange Coast College is a gift of cash. Cash gifts are welcome and convenient, but there are other ways of giving that may produce financial benefits for the donor.
Securities
Many donors choose to make gifts in the form of stocks, bonds or mutual fund shares. Donors of securities may realize tax benefits by giving long-term securities that have appreciated in value.
Real Estate
Gifts of real property may provide exceptional tax and financial benefits to the donor, as well as relief from property management burdens.
Boats, Personal Property or Equipment
Gifts of boats, equipment, personal property and other items of value may be donated to support Orange Coast College.
Charitable Remainder Trust
This gift arrangement provides income to the donor for life or term of years, leaving the remainder to Orange Coast College at the end of the trust. A charitable remainder trust can provide substantial advantages in estate planning.
Charitable Lead Trust
This trust distributes payments to Orange Coast College for the term of the trust, after which the remainder is transferred to the donor's family members or heirs. As an estate-planning tool, a charitable lead trust provides significant wealth preservation opportunities.
Pooled Income Fund
Gifts are pooled for investment providing lifetime income to the donor, after which the remainder of the fund goes to Orange Coast College.
Charitable Gift Annuity
In this gift arrangement, the donor transfers assets to Orange Coast College in exchange for a lifetime annuity.
Gift of Life Insurance
A donor may give a paid-up policy no longer needed, or purchase a new policy that names the college as the beneficiary.
Flexible Endowment
This arrangement allows a donor to create an endowment over time through incremental gifts of varying amounts.
Testamentary Gift
The Orange Coast College Foundation gratefully accepts gifts through a donor's will or revocable living trust. Sample bequest language is available upon request.
