Leaving your Legacy at Trent University

This is a call to those who believe in the transformational power of education, in empowering the next generation, and in our infinite potential to bring about momentous change.  

Leaving a gift in your estate or through a gift of life insurance is a powerful way to leave a lasting legacy and honour the causes you value most. It’s not only about paying it back but about paying it forward.  

We know that we share the common goal of inspiring and educating students for generations to come. As the world changes around us at an unprecedented pace, your gift can provide a solid foundation from which the next generation can catapult society forward. Your personal legacy is inextricably tied to the legacy of Trent University. 

Other like minded individuals are creating their legacies at Trent. We invite you to join us and explore what your legacy at Trent can be. 

If you have included Trent University in your estate plans, please let us know so that we have the opportunity to thank you. We also want to make sure that we understand the intentions of your gift to ensure it succeeds in doing as you wish. Any information exchanged will be held in the strictest of confidence. 

Request more information here about leaving a gift to Trent in your Will. Or if you’d like to speak to someone directly, we invite you to reach out to Donna Doherty, Campaign Manager, at donnadoherty@trentu.ca or by phone at 705.748.1011 ext 7208.
