Magis Legacy Society
The Magis Legacy Society honors alumni and friends who have generously supported John Carroll University with a planned gift. Examples include bequests, retirement plan beneficiary designations, life insurance, and charitable trusts.
The Magis Legacy Society pays tribute to the ideals of Saint Ignatius and our mission as a Jesuit Catholic institution. Magis means "more" and refers to the philosophy of doing more for Christ and, therefore, for others. John Carroll is committed to Jesuit education, which is respected for rigor, emphasis on ethics, and ability to inspire individuals to excel in learning, leadership and service in the region and in the world.
Planned gifts establish a lasting legacy at John Carroll. The generosity of our planned giving donors strengthens opportunities for students, faculty and programs every day. Planned gifts may benefit particular schools, departments, or special purposes, such as scholarships, endowed faculty positions, the Carroll Fund or any other area of the University. No minimum gift is required.
Membership benefits include:
- A Magis Legacy Society commemorative medallion
- Recognition in University publications
- Invitations to special events honoring society members
- Appreciation and recognition of you for your gift during your lifetime
- The ability to secure your legacy at John Carroll by making a planned gift
