We are especially honored that the sermon will be offered by Starr King Class of 2003 alum and UUA President, Rev. Dr. Sofía Betancourt.

Warm congratulations, Matty! Your ministry, leadership, and commitment to our community continue to inspire.

SKSM scholarships provide critical financial support to our progressive religious leaders in formation. Stay tuned to hear more about how you can help a student receive the concrete opportunities they need to live into their calling!

Rev. Kevin Mann (Class of 2016) and current student trustee Leisl Dees each gave testimonials about why they chose Starr King and what the school has meant for their current and future ministries. Archivist Lehel Molnár also demonstrated the rare book digitization process for those present.

To learn more about why estate planning is essential and how it can facilitate your legacy, visit www.sksm.edu/giving/gift-.... #SKSMLegacy

Estate planning is simply caring for yourself and your assets while you are living, and providing for the transfer of assets to other persons and entities – both during your life and afterwards.

You’d also be correct if you said it involves making certain other types of arrangements affecting what happens once your life has ended.

A good estate plan goes further and addresses many aspects of your current situation, as well as how to thrive in the years to come.

You can also stipulate that the funds be held in our endowment and the proceeds from that investment be used for your chosen purpose. This means your legacy will last in perpetuity. www.sksm.edu/legacy #SKSMLegacy

You can choose to make SKSM the sole beneficiary, the beneficiary of a specific percentage, or the contingent beneficiary after a spouse or other loved one. The funds realized from this legacy gift can be given as unrestricted or restricted for a specific purpose (scholarships, faculty support).

Not only is it an easy way to give, but it’s also flexible — you aren’t locked into the choices you make today. You can review and adjust beneficiary designations anytime you want. You can make Starr King a sole or partial beneficiary of a retirement account or an insurance policy.

If you are at least 73 years old and have not yet taken your required minimum distribution for the year, your IRA charitable rollover gift can satisfy all or part of that requirement.

Visit www.sksm.edu/rollover to explore your options. #SKSMLegacy

Why should you consider an IRA rollover gift if you are 70 ½ or older?

Your gift will be utilized right away, allowing you to see the difference your donation is making.

You pay no income taxes on the gift. So you benefit even if you do not itemize your deductions.
