The annual appeal provides an opportunity for donors to give regular support to the University. Regular donors develop strong relationships with the University, and it is these long-term relationships that are important in building a successful university. Although the focus of the annual appeal is mid-year, donations can be made at anytime through the University Foundation.
Deferring your giving through a planned gift or bequest is another option when considering support of the University. If you wish to receive information about the University's Bequest and Planned Giving Program, please contact the University Foundation.
Gifts-in-kind, such as a gift of artwork, books or land is another way you can help the University. The Foundation would be pleased to discuss these opportunities with you.
As well as philanthropic support, the University also invites sponsorship of priority projects. For example, this could include sponsorship of a student award.
Become involved in our growth by donating or volunteering to assist with activities. If you need more information, contact the University Foundation. We look forward to hearing from you.
