Planned Giving at CMC

Welcome to Claremont McKenna's Planned Giving Web Site!

Claremont McKenna College has launched the most ambitious campaign in the history of the liberal arts. Planned gift commitments can play an important role in the success of The Campaign for Claremont McKenna and reaching our goal of $600 million to support faculty, students, facilities, The Robert Day Scholars Program and The Fund for CMC. Claremont McKenna offers many planned gift strategies that can enhance your personal well-being while helping the College secure its leadership position well into the future.
