Wills & Bequests

You may be looking for a way to make a significant gift to help further Cleveland State University's mission. A bequest made through your will or trust is easy to accomplish and one of the most popular and flexible ways that you can support CSU.

Beneficiary Designations

A beneficiary designation is a simple and affordable way to make a gift to support the University. You can designate CSU as a beneficiary of a retirement, investment or bank account or your life insurance policy.

IRA Charitable Rollover

You may be looking for a simple way to further CSU's mission. If you are 70½ or older and also wish to lower the income and taxes from your IRA withdrawals and on your required minimum distributions when you turn 73, consider donating through an IRA charitable rollover.

Donor Advised Funds

With a donor advised fund, you can make gifts during your lifetime, and when you pass away, your children can carry on your legacy of giving.
