THE ANDREAN LEGACY - A GIFT OF LIFE INSURANCE

A gift of Life Insurance allows you and your family to make a more significant future gift to St. Andrew’s than may be possible during your lifetime. The principle of the program is simple but unique to St. Andrew’s within the independent school environment.

Rather than just writing a monthly or yearly cheque to the School, the donor receives tax benefits for gifts made towards a life insurance policy taken out in his name by the SAC Foundation. The Foundation matches the donor’s gift. When the policy matures, usually after a 10-year period, a named scholarship or bursary award can be created. However, it is not just endowment that benefits. If the donor wishes to leave the insurance policy to the “discretion of the Board of Directors and/or the Headmaster,” the proceeds can be used for whatever pressing needs at St. Andrew’s would most benefit from it at the time.
