Give a Gift Through Your Will or Trust

Including RISD in your will or trust allows you to create a meaningful legacy while retaining full control of your assets during your lifetime and potentially reducing estate taxes. If you have already included RISD in your estate plan and would like to let us know, we'd love to hear from you.

Sample bequest language: “I give [the sum of $__________] OR [%________ of my estate] to Rhode Island School of Design, a Rhode Island nonprofit educational institution, for its general educational and charitable purposes.”
