You may wish to give Presbyterian college items of tangible personal property such as artwork, rare books and manuscripts, museum-quality artifacts or antiques.
Special rules apply to direct contributions of tangible personal property.
Presbyterian College maintains a Gift Evaluation Committee which reviews gifts prior to acceptance. The Advancement Office will respond to any inquiries about prospective gifts of personal property to advise the donor on the college's potential interest and to assist in obtaining an appraisal. Gifts of personal property avoid capital gains taxes on appreciated property, providing an important tax benefit for the donor while aiding Presbyterian College. In addition, scholarly or aesthetic interest can be preserved and items of special significance can be made directly available to scholars, students and the public for educational purposes.
