Do you have a tax-deferred retirement account such as an IRA, 401(k), or 403(b)? Would you like to make a meaningful gift to the University of Minnesota or M Health Fairview?

If so, consider naming the University of Minnesota Foundation as a beneficiary. By doing so, the college, unit, or program of your choosing will receive a percentage of the assets remaining in your account after you have provided for your loved ones.

The benefits of making such a gift include:

• Tax savings. Unlike other assets you may own like stock or real estate, tax-deferred retirement assets are subject to income and estate taxes, but pass tax-free to the U of M or M Health Fairview.
• Flexibility. You can change your beneficiaries at any time if your circumstances change.
• Simplicity. You can update your beneficiary designations online as often as you wish without the cost of revising your will or trust.
• Impact. Your gift will make a lasting difference for future generations.
