Endowed Scholarship Bequest to Assist Students
Establishing the Dr. John and Marion Staples Endowed Scholarship Fund at Palmer College of Chiropractic's Florida Campus in memory of my husband, John Hugh Staples, D.C., 1953, was the least I could do to express my gratitude for the education he received and the lifestyle we were able to enjoy. More on Endowed Scholarship Bequest to Assist Students >>.

Bequests
My education from Palmer College has allowed me to live the way I always imagined. Palmer has given me tools that I can use anywhere in the world. My occupation is not reliant upon temporary or limited technology. More on Bequests >>.

Sale and Unitrust
Gene and Carol White purchased stock in a small medical service company several years ago. The company has done well. A larger company is now discussing the possibility of buying the smaller company. Gene and Carol are looking for a way to save taxes. More on Sale and Unitrust >>.

Generous IRA Gift
Jerry is a fireman who volunteers for a number of charities in his community. Recently, Palmer College of Chiropractic shared an opportunity to join in a new program with a positive impact. Jerry was excited to help, but a lead gift of $10,000 was needed to start the program. More on Generous IRA Gift >>.
