Annual Gifts
The mainstay of private support is the annual support of alumni and
friends. Existing tax laws encourage annual gifts of cash, securities or real property,
and the after-tax cost of these gifts to the contributor may be surprisingly low.
These organizations provide
matching funds. Please take advantage of this opportunity if possible.
Planned Gifts
Through long-range estate and financial planning, you may make a
substantial contribution to the Foundation while benefiting your own financial program.
Bequests, gifts of life insurance, testamentary trusts and life income trusts are
planned giving mechanisms that the Foundation board of trustees would be happy to discuss with you
and your advisors.
Honorary and
Memorial Gifts
An honorary or memorial gift is a thoughtful and meaningful way to
recognize the life and work of a colleague, friend of relative. A special program or
project can be initiated in the name of a specific individual, and an existing memorial or
honorary fund can grow with additional support.
