Gifts of insurance can be an efficient way to remember NJUHSD in your estate plans without requiring a change to your will by changing the beneficiary of an existing plan to the NJUHSD Foundation. If ownership of the policy is contributed to NJUHSD Foundation, you will receive an immediate tax deduction for the cash surrender value of the policy. If you give the policy but wish to continue paying the premiums, by giving NJUHSD Foundation the premium amount, you will get an immediate tax deduction for the cash surrender value as well as the yearly premium amount. You may also purchase a new policy to benefit the school and receive tax benefits now for a future gift to NJUHSD Foundation.
