Melissa Mencotti, Director of Gift Planning

As you browse through this site, you will discover opportunities to provide for your loved ones, plan for your retirement, increase your spendable income, avoid capital gain tax and reduce or eliminate estate taxes. In addition, you will find that you can make a real difference at Allegheny at the same time.

What and how to give depends on your situation. Allegheny’s staff is ready to work with you and your advisors, in confidence and without obligation, to help you determine the best possible methods of giving, depending upon your circumstances. Please feel free to contact me for more information about any of the options covered on this site.

For many, a simple bequest is the best way to make a planned gift to Allegheny. If you have already included Allegheny in your estate plans or are planning to make a bequest, please take a moment to let us know by completing and submitting the William Bentley Legacy Society Memorandum of Understanding. We would like to thank you and keep you informed about how your commitment to Allegheny will affect generations of students.

For nearly 200 years, Allegheny has benefited from a strong philanthropic tradition. Generations of Allegheny alumni and friends have expressed their love for this institution by making an investment in its future. By supporting Allegheny today, you can do the same. Thank you for thinking about Allegheny as you consider financial- and gift-planning options.
