Should you make a gift using appreciated securities or other property, you can avoid any capital gains that would otherwise be due were you to sell the gifted assets. The Warner Legacy Life income gifts provide vital support for Carnegie Mellon. All loyal alumni and friends who provide for the university's future through an irrevocable life income plan are honored with membership in the Warner Legacy. This society honors John Christian Warner, president of Carnegie Institute of Technology from 1950-1965. His leadership and vision are reflected in the leadership and vision of those who provide for the university's future through an irrevocable life income plan.
