How will my donation be used?

Donations to the Stewards Fund will go entirely to fund scholarships in the program you choose. Donations to all other giving programs go into the Development Fund, which is managed by the University’s President, who seeks advice on fund dispersal from the Development Committee and the University Board of Trustees. The remainder of the Annual Fund giving programs are not used for general operations of the University, but rather to fund specific programs and physical plant needs of the University.

Is my donation tax deductible?

Yes. You will receive a letter each year detailing your donations to the Annual Fund. Please consult with your CPA, financial advisor of attorney regarding the details of your particular tax situation.

Will my employer match my donation?

We would encourage you to check with your company to see if they have a corporate matching program.

How should I make my donation?

You can pay by check, with your Visa or Mastercard, or through a payroll deduction if you are a University employee. If you pay with a credit card, you can set it up to have a regular amount charged to your card (monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually). Employees can request a payroll deduction.
