Types of Gifts

Making a gift to the School of Education is easy, and it is always much appreciated.

There are two basic types of gifts: outright and deferred.

Outright gifts include cash gifts, corporate matching gifts, gifts of securities, and gifts of property.

Deferred gifts are simply gifts that are made in the present and received by the Foundation in the future. Some deferred gifts are straightforward, such as a bequest in a will. Others are more complex, providing current tax benefits as well as life income for the donor and/or beneficiary.

Write out a check for the amount you would like to contribute and make it payable to the University of Wisconsin Foundation. Use the memo portion of your check to identify the specific project, department, or program to which you would like your gift to be applied. Examples are the School's scholarship fund, any department within the School, or the School's general fund. It is very important that you complete the memo portion of your check. We want to make sure your gift will be applied to your area of interest. And finally, mail your check to the following address:
