Legacy Society membership is conferred when Virginia Tech is notified of your qualifying gift. Such gifts include:

  • Will bequest or trust

  • Charitable remainder trust (unitrust or annuity trust)

  • Gift annuity (immediate or deferred)

  • Retirement account beneficiary

  • Life insurance beneficiary

  • Remainder interest in retained life estate (residence or farm)

  • Pooled income fund

The Office of Gift Planning is happy to answer questions on deferred giving options and can be reached at giftplanning@vt.edu or 540-231-2813.
