There are many ways to support The Leelanau School:

Annual Giving

The Annual Fund includes annual contributions which are raised and spent during the current fiscal year to offset operating costs. For more information, select the "Annual Giving" link on the left.

Capital Giving

Capital gifts support new construction, major renovations, endowment, and program initiatives. Such projects not only improve the campus environment, they permit Leelanau to continue to offer programs that meet the changing needs of our students.

Planned Giving

Planned gifts provide an opportunity for donors to support Leelanau through deferred gifts. Significant tax and income benefits to the donor can be realized through planned and deferred giving vehicles.  Planned gifts include gifts through wills, living trusts, charitable trusts, charitable gift annuities, retirement plans or other estate planning arrangements.

Gifts-in-Kind

Gifts in kind, or non-cash gifts, are gratefully received in support of school needs. Many parents and friends of the School have access to goods and services that may be of use to Leelanau's programs. Gifts-in-kind are tax deductable.

Gifts in Memory or in Honor

Gifts may be made in memory or in honor of an individual on the occasion of a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or significant life event. The family members of those being remembered or the individual so honored receives notification of the gift identifying the donor but without specifying the amount of the gift.

All gifts to The Leelanau School are tax-deductible and are acknowledged and receipted through the Development Office.

Gifts to Leelanau may be doubled or even tripled through matching gifts programs, whereby many companies match contributions made by employees.
