For instance, the American Association of University Women has a state organization as well as local chapters, which provide scholarships to students in that community. I have found that universities have different approaches for earmarking gifts for scholarships. Often a quick call to the institution is the easiest way to find the best fund to contribute to. Your client may want to contribute to a university’s scholarship endowment so that her gift continues into the future.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Margaret<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> wsbapt-bounces@lists.wsbarppt.com <wsbapt-bounces@lists.wsbarppt.com> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Adrienne Keith Wills<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, April 17, 2019 10:39 AM<br><b>To:</b> 'WSBA Probate & Trust Listserv' <wsbapt@lists.wsbarppt.com><br><b>Subject:</b> [WSBAPT] Scholarship bequest tips?<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Hi Listmates:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I have an estate planning client who herself benefitted from a scholarship and is wants to provide for a college scholarship in conjunction with preparing a Will.

Based on the Deskbook, it sounds like a Community Foundation may be an option and that the client could select from one of many in the state. She’s living in Seattle but herself is from Snohomish county. Alternatively, it sounds like selecting a particular institution (ex. UW) and working with them would be an option.
