Welcome to the web home of the Northwestern Office of Development. Our office exists to support the mission and purposes of the university by coordinating efforts to increase the breadth and depth of financial support by, and on behalf of, our alumni and friends. With your assistance, we can build an even more unique culture of caring at Northwestern Health Sciences University.

The First Step in Giving: Look through the options in our annual and planned giving sections and see which type of giving appeals to you.

Northwestern is a non-profit educational institution, and depends on your support and good citizenship. Through your support we can continue to improve the education and training of people who will play one of the most important roles in the future: natural health care providers who can successfully guide people to a life of better health, improved well-being, and greater independence.

There are a number of advantages to giving to Northwestern, both direct and indirect. The single greatest direct advantage is derived from diminishing the tax liability for you or your heirs.

The Second Step in Giving: Consult with your financial planning professional. Tax advantages will vary widely.

The indirect and intangible benefits serve other goals. Northwestern exists to train natural health care providers, provide health care services and perform necessary research to explore the scientific basis for clinical care.

The Third Step in Giving: Initiate the gift online, or call our office for assistance. Planned Gifts in particular need coordination between several professionals to assure that all interests are appropriately considered.

We can offer general or technical assistance regarding gift-giving to Northwestern. Please call me with any questions you may have regarding how you can support the mission and vision of Northwestern Health Sciences University.
