Leave a Legacy of Education

Planned Giving Is for Everyone

Making a will is one of the most impactful ways to extend your love and generosity for your family and friends. It can also help support students and education for generations to come. By leaving a gift to the University of Dallas in your will, you are building a lasting legacy to educate young people, now and for years in the future.

Many supporters of our work choose to include the University of Dallas in their wills in honor of loved ones. Planned giving is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to make an impact. Gifts of any size are appreciated, and you can designate how you’d like your gift to be used to support the programs you care about most. Our supporters choose to leave gifts ranging from $1,000 to $1 million in their wills.

If you need to create a will, the University of Dallas has partnered with FreeWill, a quick, easy, and free online tool you can use .  It takes less than 20 minutes to create a will on this site, and the document you create is valid in all 50 states.
