Donations received will be carefully utilized as valuable financial resources for projects implemented under this fund.

1. Provision of scholarships to School of Medicine students who are actively engaged in international activities

2. Provision of scholarships to other School of Medicine students who meet the objectives of the Kitasato Fund

① "Tax Credit": Up to 25% of the annual income tax, 40% of the amount calculated by subtracting 2,000 yen from the total amount of donations for that year will be deducted from the income tax.

② "Income Deduction": Up to 40% of the total annual income, the amount calculated by subtracting 2,000 yen from the total amount of donations for that year will be deducted from the income for that year.

(2) Individual Inhabitant Tax Donation Tax Credit

In municipalities that have designated Keio University as a "corporation eligible for donation tax credit" by ordinance, you can receive an individual inhabitant tax deduction by filing a final income tax return.

*For details, please refer to the Keio University Office of Fund Raising website.

Donations by corporations are also eligible for tax incentives. For details, please contact the Shinanomachi Campus Accounting Section.

Upon request, your name and the amount of your donation will be published in "Mita-hyoron (official monthly journal published by Keio University Press)," the official journal of Keio University.

We ask for your understanding and cooperation in this system, which utilizes your noble intentions for the future.

1. Donations by Bequest

In recent years, interest in wills has been increasing, and more people are creating wills as a way to ensure that their wishes are realized in the future. For those who wish to contribute to society by donating a portion of their built-up assets to Keio University, Keio University has established a "Donation by Bequest System" in partnership with trust banks.

2. Tax Incentives

- Assets bequeathed to Keio University are exempt from inheritance tax.

- If inherited property is donated to Keio University, the donation will be excluded from the taxable amount of inheritance tax and will be tax-exempt if reported within the inheritance tax filing deadline (within 10 months from the day after the passing). Please consult with us early, as it takes about two months for the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology to issue the "Certificate of Corporation Exempt from Inheritance Tax."

If you are interested, please feel free to contact the [Contact Information] below.

We will listen to your consultation and provide support, such as introducing partner trust banks and liaising with relevant departments, to ensure that your donation is made in accordance with your intentions.
