Planned Giving
Many people like to support the causes that mean the most to them with a gift through their will or trust, or other type of planned arrangement. These gifts, known as planned gifts, are usually, though not always, fulfilled after death. Although most planned gifts come from wills or living trusts, other options include life insurance, retirement assets, real estate, and securities.
Visit our Planned Giving website for more information.
Give in Honor of a Loved One
Honor a friend or loved one by making a contribution in their honor. Honorees or their families will be notified of your donation to their favorite U program.
For more information, please contact Nicole Kirkham nicole.kirkham@utah.edu.
Give through a Donor-Advised Fund
A Donor-Advised Fund offers the opportunity to create an easy-to-establish, low cost, flexible vehicle for charitable giving as an alternative to direct giving or to creating a private foundation. This is accomplished by first establishing a DAF with an irrevocable donation to a public charity that sponsors a DAF program. The donor then recommends the allocation of the donated assets to a qualified public charity. For more information please contact Kirsten Dorius at (801) 585-0745 or toll free (800) 716-0377 or kirsten.dorius@utah.edu.

Humanities Class of 1982
"I decided to establish an endowed scholarship in honor of my mother who encouraged me on my path to become a first-generation college graduate from the U's College of Humanities. In her name, I can now support other first-generation students at the U for years to come, and I'm thrilled to be able to do it."

"Without the scholarships I recieved from Humanities, I would not have been able to fulfill my lifelong dream of earning an outstanding education in International Studies and Linguistics. I am so grateful for my education and indebted to those who give so that students like me can lead the way to a brighter future."

"In the Writing Studies Scholars program, I received the encouragement and skills I needed to make my transition to the U [...] Having a great professor that believes in you and checks in on you to see how you are doing makes all the difference in the world. And the scholarship I received was the only way I was able to afford being a full-time student at the U." Read More
