Make an Impact

Direct a gift from your IRA (if you're 70½ or older) to the Foundation. Your gift may count toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) and reduce taxable income.

To ensure your gift is properly credited and directed to the fund you intend, please notify the Foundation when you request a distribution from your IRA.

Transfer appreciated securities directly to the Foundation. Donate appreciated stock to the college and receive a charitable deduction for the full market value of the gift. Additionally, you may avoid paying capital gains on the appreciation.  

Maximize your giving power while supporting student success. For instructions on stock donations, please contact the Foundation at foundation@butte.edu or 530-895-2359. 

Name the Butte College Foundation as a beneficiary or transfer ownership of an existing policy to the Foundation. Your gift can provide lasting support for students and programs while offering potential tax benefits.

Transform your retirement savings into a powerful force for good. By naming the Butte College Foundation as a beneficiary of your IRA, your gift passes tax-free and helps students achieve their dreams for generations to come.

Create a legacy of opportunity by including the Butte College Foundation in your estate plan. Your planned gift may reduce estate taxes and ensure your values live on through the success of future students. 

If you’ve included the Butte College Foundation in your estate plans, please let us know so we can thank you and keep you informed about the programs and student achievements your future gift will support.
