The donations received will be carefully utilized as a valuable financial resource for projects implemented under this fund.

1. Donations via Bequests In recent years, interest in wills has been increasing, and more people are creating wills as a way to ensure their wishes are realized in the future. For those who wish to contribute to society by donating a portion of their accumulated assets to Keio University, Keio University has established a "Donation via 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 by filing within the inheritance tax filing deadline (within 10 months from the day after the passing). Please consult 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 provide support to ensure that your donation is made according to your intentions, such as by providing consultations, introducing partner trust banks, and referring you to the relevant departments.
