Legacy gifts provide the foundation for Claremont McKenna College’s work.

These gifts allow you to take care of your family, provide for gifts to loved ones, and include a charitable gift for Claremont McKenna College. We can help you find the best way to make your gift, and perhaps help you to make a larger gift than you thought possible.
