Endowment & Legacy Giving

The future of Kingswood College is secured through two endowments, namely the Kingswood College Centenary Trust and the Kingswood College Scholarship and Bursary Trust. The different focus areas of the Trusts give donors a choice as to how they would prefer their investment in the College to be channelled.

Both Trusts are overseen by an independent Board of Trustees comprising of both Council and Old Kingswoodian representatives. Through prudent investments and careful management, monies donated to Kingswood College are well looked after and wisely spent.

Leaving a Legacy to Kingswood

As you think about your connection with Kingswood College and your plans for the future, we invite you to consider leaving a gift to the future pupils of Kingswood in your will.

Legacies are often the most significant gift a person can make. Remembering a charity such as the Kingswood College Trust in your will can have a profound impact for generations and can be a very special way to create a legacy that transcends time. Of course, families come first when you make your estate plans, but bequests to charitable institutions are also exempt from tax and may lead to savings in the amount of estate duty payable by your heirs.
