Ways to Give
Principal Gifts
The Penn Law we know today would not exist without our alumni, parents, and friends. Our forward-looking cross-disciplinary program is possible, in part, because of the generosity of our donors. Donors interested in making a named or endowed gift for a specific purpose should contact Laura Tepper.
The Fund for Penn Law
Support from our alumni and friends is crucial to sustaining and improving Penn Law’s standing as an elite institution with rigorous and innovative academic offerings, a collegial atmosphere, and world-renowned faculty. Your generosity helps Penn Law to address its highest priorities and improve all aspects of the student experience, from interdisciplinary initiatives and skill-building programs to student resources and scholarship assistance.

Gift Planning
Through the years, many individuals have found planned gifts to be an excellent vehicle for advancing Penn Law while obtaining favorable tax benefits. Penn’s Office of Gift Planning helps donors tailor bequests and structure gifts of stock, real estate, life insurance, or retirement plans to maximize tax savings while supporting the Law School. A variety of life income arrangements are also available, including Charitable Gift Annuities, and Charitable Remainder Trusts. Find out more about Penn’s Office of Gift Planning.
