UNRESTRICTED
Unrestricted gifts to the Annual Fund are directed by the College’s Trustees to those areas where the need is most pressing. 

RESTRICTED
Donations can be made to a particular program at the College which supports the donor’s personal interest. 

ENDOWED
A minimum contribution of $100,000 made either through a lifetime gift or by bequest establishes an endowed named fund.  The principal is preserved, and the income supports the activities of the fund.

For questions about gifts of cash or stock, please contact

CAPITAL DONATIONS
Capital gifts for building renovation or construction provide students and faculty with physical facilities to support their educational goals.

PLANNED GIFTS
Many of our donors are futurists, those who see the importance of planning for tomorrow's needs today by making deferred gifts and outright bequests. Members of the Heritage Society includes donors who have placed major assets  in a charitable trust, not only to meet personal income needs during life, but to benefit the College in the years ahead.

LIFE INCOME GIFTS
Life income arrangements vary, but most options offer the following financial benefits: 

an income for life to the donor and a second beneficiary; 

a charitable income tax deduction; 

a higher rate of return than many current investments; 

a reduction or avoidance of capital gains taxes; 

savings on estate and gift taxes; 

professional investment management.
