CHANGE THE FUTUREwith your legacy gift

To make your legacy gift, contact Lee Davis, director of legacy giving, at 404.471.5448 or ldavis@agnesscott.edu.

Your Agnes Scott didn’t offer immunology, politics of the European Union, or international finance. But as the world continues to bring new challenges, Agnes Scott continues to provide the education needed to meet them.

You can help, with your legacy gift. Made through your will, IRA or a gift that provides you with lifelong income, your legacy could help a Scottie create positive change in a challenging future.
