Just as Janus was the god of doorways and beginnings, The Janus
School is a new beginning for students with learning differences.
In Janus’ nurturing and supportive environment, students who
have struggled to learn discover their value and their own voice
while they gain the skills they need to fully reach their potential.
The support we receive from people like you helps to make the
opportunity of a new beginning possible. Contributions to the
Annual Fund help to close the gap between what tuition covers
and the actual expense of educating a student at The Janus
School. Generous businesses who participate in the Educational
Improvement Tax Credit program (EITC) help to ensure that Janus
students will have scholarship monies available to them. Your
support powers our programs, ensures that we have equipment
to teach, and helps provide aid to families. Without your help,
The Janus School simply would not exist.
“I learned more in one year at Janus than the
last three years at my old school.”

provide a life-altering education a signed stock power for each certificate.
to boys and girls who deserve Appreciated securities that you have held
the opportunity for a future for more than one year can be transferred
without limits. directly to The Janus School. By doing
this, you will pay no capital gains tax on
the transaction and you can deduct the
full fair market value which is calculated
by averaging the high and low share price
on the gift date. If you are holding stock
that has decreased in value, sell the stock
yourself to realize the loss and take the
deduction for tax purposes. You can then
make a gift to The Janus School and take the
charitable contribution deduction.
Life Income
A Charitable Lead Trust provides current income to The Janus School while sheltering your heirs’
inheritance from taxes. Income generated from the assets placed in trust is paid to the school for
a period of years, after which the property is transferred to your heirs at a substantial tax savings.
A Charitable Remainder Trust irrevocably transfers cash, securities, or property to a trust for the
benefit of The Janus School. The donor or designated beneficiary receives a fixed dollar amount or
percentage of the assets at least annually for life or for a fixed term up to 20 years. Upon death, or
the end of the term, the trust terminates and the assets are transferred to The Janus School.
Life Insurance
If you have life insurance policies that are no longer needed, you may either name The Janus School
as the beneficiary or donate a policy to us. If you give a paid policy, you can receive an income tax
deduction equal to the lesser of the cash value of the policy or the premiums paid. To qualify for
a federal charitable contribution deduction on a gift of an existing policy, you must name The Janus
School as owner and beneficiary.
Bequests
With a gift in your will, you can be part of the education of future generations. Bequests permit
donors to commit assets that they might need during their lifetimes. You can bequeath a percentage
of your estate, a fixed dollar amount, or specific personal property.
There are other ways to make a significant future gift to The Janus School while retaining, or in many
cases, increasing the income you receive from the asset used to make the gift. For more information,
please contact our Director of Development, Nicholas Chapman at 717.653.0025.
We believe all great minds do not think alike. The Janus School
helps students with learning differences so they can access their full
potential. We are the only independent day school in Central Pennsylvania
dedicated to the needs of students with dyslexia,AD(H)D, non-verbal
learning difficulties and Asperger’s syndrome. We focus on each student’s
unique learning style, giving them the tools they need to achieve academic
success and a happy, independent life long after they leave The Janus School.
