Annual Gifts

Annual gifts provide crucial, flexible support to meet the strategic priorities of each college, school, department, and program. Annual gifts fund educational essentials for student scholarships and experiential learning opportunities such as research projects, conference participation, and study abroad. You can designate the focus of your gift to a particular area on campus or support the greatest needs of the University by making a gift to the ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú Fund for Excellence. You can make a one-time, monthly or recurring annual gift of any amount.

At ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú, matching gifts count toward donor recognition clubs. To find out if your company has a matching gift policy, search below, or talk with your human resources department – request a matching gift form or log-in from your employer and send it completed and signed with your gift. The impact of your gift may be doubled or even tripled! Contact the Office of Development with questions.
