Planned Giving
With a planned gift, you can support GW's efforts to provide student financial aid, hire the highest quality professors, conduct groundbreaking research, and provide state-of-the-art facilities. Discover how a planned gift can benefit you and GW.
Real Estate
Donating property to GW can provide important tax advantages while eliminating the responsibility of property management. Depending on the gift arrangement, you may also benefit from a lifetime income stream, cash back from the gift transaction, or even retain the right to continue living in a property you donate.
Gifts-in-Kind
From the rare banking documents of presidents and senators to works of art to dinners purchased for students, gifts-in-kind are priceless for the inspiration and knowledge they impart to GW students and friends.
For more information about donating a collection of knowledge and inspiration, please contact Dean Regenovich at [email protected] or 202-748-4532.

Endowed Gifts
Gifts of all kinds may be designated as a long-term investment through an endowment. Endowed gifts create a permanent legacy for scholarships, helping generations of students attend GW, or an endowed faculty position may be created to bring the best professors and researchers to GW to work with our students.
