The campaign offer multiple opportunities to ensure that your name becomes part of the University’s permanent legacy.
Outright Gifts
Many donors choose to make gifts of cash. Traditionally, such gifts are made by check. Giving by credit card on Alliant’s Pledge form is an increasingly popular option.
Pledges
By spreading payments over a period of time — typically not more than five years — pledges allow donors to make larger commitments and fulfill them at a comfortable pace.
Planned Gifts
Alliant’s planning experts can help you select from a wide variety of tax-wise giving strategies. Gifts of retirement plan assets, real property, and the complete range of life income gifts, including charitable remainder trusts.
Gifts of Securities
Donors who choose to give appreciated securities can receive a charitable tax deduction for the full market value of the securities and avoid capital gains tax.
Bequests
Bequests often enable donors to give more than would have been possible during their lifetimes. Bequests may be kept private, and they can be changed during the donor’s lifetime. Bequests are relatively easy to establish, often with just a simple addition to a will or revocable trust. And bequests are tax-wise — gifts through bequests qualify for certain estate tax deductions.
Tribute Gifts
Gifts made through any of the methods described above can be designated in honor or memory of a loved one or in celebration of a milestone event, such as a birthday, anniversary and graduation. If you chose to make a tribute gift to Alliant, please indicate the honoree in the Special Instructions field of the Pledge Form.
Matching Gifts
Many companies match the charitable gifts of their employees.
