Planned Giving

Planned giving is a long term approach.

Planned gifts range from life-income gifts, to bequests, to creative arrangements using retirement-plan benefits.

Some donors choose to make an outright gift of assets such as stocks, bonds or property. Making a planned gift may allow you to give more than you ever thought possible and at the same time benefit from tax advantages or income for a term of years of life. Join the leaders of our past with a gift to our future.

If you have chosen to give a planned gift to Spartanburg Day School, you are a part of an elite group called the Captain Pennell Society.

The Captain Pennell Society recognizes donors who include Spartanburg Day School in their Estate plans such as a will, beneficiary of a retirement plan or trust.

The Pennell family, in honor of Capt. Pennell, generously donated the land on which Spartanburg Day School currently sits.
