Columbus Academy educates our students not just for success in the classroom, but for success in life, and the members of our Academy community are committed to ensuring its future.
Through strategic philanthropic planning, your legacy at CA-and for your family-can be greater than you imagine.
Bequest or inclusion in your will
Leaving a set amount or percentage of your estate is as simple as adding a codicil to your will, and we can provide you with the language to add.
Whole or partial beneficiary of IRA, 401(k), 403(b), life insurance
Retirement plan funds are taxed when they are disbursed... unless the funds go directly to a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. You can name Columbus Academy as a beneficiary in your online account portal. If you are interested in options related to life insurance policies, please contact our office for assistance.
The simplest, most cost-efficient way for me to make a significant gift to our Class of 1955 Scholarship Fund was naming Columbus Academy a beneficiary of my IRA." Sheldon Taft '55

“We found Columbus Academy to be an exceptional teaching community. As young teachers at Academy, our fellow faculty members became our mentors and lifelong friends. We want to support families who choose Academy as the place for their children to learn, grow and work their way toward becoming adults.”
- Barbara and Michael York
Former Academy teachers, Barbara and Michael York, have planned a bequest to provide tuition assistance for Lower School students. We are pleased to thank them for their forever gift.
