Leaving a legacy
For many alumni and friends of Kent, a legacy gift will benefit the University long into the future, commemorating life. A bequest is one of the most personal gifts you can make - it allows you to honour a loved one and we would be pleased to work with you to ensure that any legacy is used exactly in a way that suits you.
By making a planned gift, you can make a significant gift to Kent and gain financial and tax benefits for you and your family. Wills are private and you may not want to divulge details of the arrangements that you have made. However, if you wish to tell us that the University has been included in your will, we will be delighted to hear that you are supporting us and can then keep you informed in a way that suits you.
If your intended bequest is a particular item or a sum of money to be used for a specific purpose, such as a bench on campus or a collection of books for the library, it is helpful for us to know in advance so that we are aware of any arrangements that will need to be made.
