THE FOUNDATION FOR MANATEE COMMUNITY COLLEGE, INC.
CATCH THE SPIRIT. SHARE THE PRIDE. TOUCH THE FUTURE.
In 1957, the State Board of Education established the region’s first institution of higher education – Manatee Community College. For the first time, men and women living in Manatee and Sarasota counties would have the opportunity to pursue a college degree close to home.
The Founders opened wide a door of opportunity for an appreciative community already rich in pride and spirit. They also began a practice of philanthropic leadership committed to sustaining the illustrious institution they had created. As heirs of this abundant legacy, we inherit a responsibility to plan for both the academic and financial future of our community’s college. Our challenge today is to ensure the College’s proud tradition endures.
In recognition of the generous friends and alumni who have made MCC part of their own personal legacy through a planned gift, the Foundation has established The Legacy Society. This society underscores the importance of planned gifts to MCC’s future and expresses the College’s grateful appreciation to a very important group of benefactors. Membership in the Society denotes a desire to secure a financially strong and academically vibrant future for Manatee Community College.
To become eligible, notify the Foundation that you have included MCC in your estate plans. There are numerous planned giving opportunities available, including bequests, living trusts, retirement beneficiaries, life estates in a personal residence, life income gifts such as charitable gift annuities, and a variety of charitable remainder trusts as well as life insurance and other financial vehicles.
Your gift today will serve to grow tomorrow’s bright promise.
