HOW TO CREATE YOUR LEGACY
Choose the donation method that best suits you and your estate. Then speak to Trinity College’s gift planning staff – we’re here to help. If you wish to direct your gift to a specific area or program, please contact us for detailed bequest language.
OUR THANKS
When you inform Trinity College of your plans, you will be invited to join the Gerald Larkin Society, a special group of Trinity’s alumni and friends who have chosen to create their legacy by giving back to the College and our students.
The Gerald Larkin Society acknowledges donors who have made a legacy gift to Trinity College.
Mr. Larkin, who headed the Salada Tea Company from 1922 to 1957, was an extraordinary benefactor, and was as quiet and unassuming as he was generous. And while his gift of $6 million in 1961 remains the largest single bequest in the College’s history, legacy gifts of any size have an impact on the quality of life and learning at the College.
From scholarship and bursaries, to academic programs, to our historic campus, to the clubs and organizations that make Trinity life what it is, there is no aspect of the College that isn’t touched by the generosity of our legacy donors.
Members of the Gerald Larkin Society are recognized in the Donor Impact Report and are invited to special events throughout the year. If you have already made a legacy gift, but have not informed the College, please consider letting us know. We would be honoured to thank you for your generous and thoughtful gift during your lifetime.
To become a member of the Gerald Larkin Society, please complete our short Gerald Larkin Society Form (PDF) [LINK to PDF] and return it to the College. If you would like more information, please contact us. We are happy to speak with you personally.
However you choose to give, please designate Trinity College as the beneficiary of your donation.
