Estate Planning
As you consider your estate plans, the Office of Planned Giving would be honored to discuss how you might include a philanthropic element to support Furman’s future. However, our staff is unable to provide specific legal or tax advice, and we highly recommend working with a legal professional to finalize your estate plans. If you do not have an attorney, we are pleased to share with you the following list of Furman alumni attorneys who can assist with estate planning needs.
