Annual Giving
Every year, thousands of alumni, parents and friends make gifts of all sizes to CU Boulder. These gifts can be designated to support any program or activity at the University.
Endowments
Gifts made to create an endowed fund are invested in perpetuity. A portion of the earned income is then used to support the fund’s purpose. Any excess earnings are reinvested, allowing the fund to grow. Endowments may be created for student scholarships and fellowships, faculty chairs and professorships, or many other purposes. The endowment section provides more information about minimum levels and how to establish an endowment.
Planned Giving
Designating CU Boulder in your will is a great way to make a gift without impacting your current finances and lifestyle. Other gifts like annuities, trusts and IRA rollovers can provide significant tax savings to you. The University of Colorado Foundation website has additional information about planned giving.
