In addition to the income tax savings and the avoidance of capital gains tax, the donor also receives the benefit of knowing that his or her contribution is making a lasting impact on current and future Wooster students. By investing in the mission of Wooster, donors are helping educate the leaders of tomorrow, preparing ethical and skilled decision makers who are motivated to leadership and service. Like few of its peers, Wooster serves a significant portion of students who require some form of financial assistance. Wooster's dedicated alumni body attests to its success in adding significant value to the lives of its students. Less tangible than material success, however, Wooster's real strength is visible in the transformed lives of the individuals it serves. Providing the skills necessary to live principled, decent lives, Wooster strives to imbue students with a rich value structure. Thus, benefactors share in the vital educational work of Wooster creating a just and peaceful world.
