Ways to Give

The University of Idaho Foundation, Inc. accepts gifts over the phone, by mail or online.

Cash
Annual cash gifts can be directed to any college program, school, or area of your choice, and can be for immediate expenditures or added to an endowmen—a permanent fund that provides income to the University of Idaho.

Appreciated Assets
Highly appreciated corporate securities, real estate, and other significant assets make great giving vehicles. They can be gifted outright or can be used to create an income stream for the life of the donor and/or their beneficiaries.

Planned Giving
There are numerous ways to make a planned gift through an estate, will, trust, and other long-term vehicles. If you are considering such a gift, please contact the Development Office in the College of Education for more information. We want to ensure your wishes are implemented correctly, and it is important to involve the University in the planning process.

Memorial or Honorary Gifts
To make a gift in memory or in honor of someone, attach a note with your gift that includes the name of the person you are memorializing or honoring. For memorial gifts, also include the family contact name(s) and address(es). For honorary gifts, include the address of the person you are honoring. We will send a card to the family/individual to notify them that you have made a gift. (The amount of your gift will not be revealed.)

If a special memorial fund or honorary fund has already been created in the person’s name, your gift will be credited to that account unless you tell us otherwise. If a special fund has not been created, your gift will be credited to the designation you indicate.
