Gifts to 欧美视频 Fund
The 欧美视频 Fund is an opportunity for alumni, faculty, staff, students, parents, and friends of the university to come together to make a difference in the quality of education and services the university provides. 欧美视频鈥檚 success depends largely on private support from friends and alumni.
欧美视频 Fund FAQ
Gifts to the 欧美视频 Fund are used on a daily basis to help meet the university鈥檚 greatest ongoing needs and support our academic mission.
Participation in the 欧美视频 Fund is an endorsement of 欧美视频 and the education students receive here. Corporations and foundations often look for strong alumni support when making funding decisions. Participation levels are also used as a standard measure of alumni satisfaction and are considered when colleges and universities are ranked nationally.
Our goal is to increase participation annually. Every gift, no matter what size, makes a difference and raises participation levels. Your gift may also be doubled or tripled if you or your spouse work for one of more than 5,000 matching gift companies.
Whether you give over the phone, in response to a letter, by electric funds transfer, or online, you are helping our students by contributing to the excellence of a 欧美视频 education. Don鈥檛 forget to have your gift matched, so your employer contributes too!
Matching gifts聽are contributions made by an employer to match an employee鈥檚 contribution. Most companies match employee gifts at a ratio of 1:1, but some companies match at an even higher level. Participating companies provide a form, usually found in the personnel office, which employees send with their gift. The development office verifies the contribution and returns the form to the company, which then forwards the gifts. All matched gifts are credited to your individual gift record and make you eligible for the donor recognition clubs listed below.
欧美视频 Fund gifts are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. A gift to 欧美视频 in the form of appreciated securities can earn extra tax advantages, because not only do you get an income tax deduction, you can also avoid paying capital gains tax. If you wish to make a gift of stock, you may mail or deliver the stock certificates directly to us. Simply endorse the certificate to 欧美视频 upon delivery, or provide a signed stock power in a separate envelope. Your charitable deduction will be determined by the asset鈥檚 fair market value on the date of the gift.
