Ways to Donate 

Laying the Cornerstone for our Children's Future

REAL ESTATE

Gifts of Real Estate

Donating real estate can be a powerful way to support Cornerstone. Whether it’s a home, land, or other property, these gifts can provide generous tax benefits while making a lasting impact on students in the Upper Valley.

​Outright Gift

What it is: You donate a property (home, land, or commercial real estate) directly to Cornerstone. The property is then sold, and the proceeds support our mission.

Retained Life Estate

What it is: You transfer ownership of your home to Cornerstone while continuing to live there for life.

Charitable Trusts with Real Estate

What it is: Property is transferred into a trust, sold, and reinvested. The trust provides you with income for life, with the remainder benefiting Cornerstone.

Fractional Interest

What it is: You donate a share (portion) of your property. Cornerstone and you then work together to sell it, with proceeds divided accordingly.

Conservation Easement

What it is: You protect your land by donating or selling its development rights, ensuring it is conserved forever.
