Gifts of Real Estate

Give back and reduce your tax liability with real estate gifts to support Elon students! Donating property or a percentage of it can help you avoid capital gains tax, reduce current income tax, and minimize future federal estate taxes. Explore life income gifts for potential income boosts, or deed property, like vacation homes, to Elon while retaining the lifetime right to occupy it. Note that real estate gifts must meet specific criteria and be approved by Elon’s Board of Trustees.

  • If you wish to donate real estate to Elon, please contact Brian Baker, Associate Vice President for University Advancement and Director of Principal Gifts, at (336) 278-7453 or bbaker7@elon.edu.

Payroll Deduction

A payroll deduction gift is an easy way to make a big impact while staying within your budget and working with your schedule. Set it and forget it! Elon employees can make their gifts to the university through electronic payroll deduction. Existing payroll deductions automatically roll over at the end of each fiscal year for your convenience.
