Thank you for your generosity to Bates by way of a life income gift, through a charitable gift annuity, charitable trust, or pooled fund gift. Your trusted contact is a person, other than your spouse or partner, who the college may contact when we have tried unsuccessfully to reach you directly if there is an issue with your life income payments. Providing this information is optional. Your trusted contact person will not be entitled to change how payments are made to you, to change your mailing address, or to otherwise transact any business on your behalf.
