More Ways to Make a Gift.
Gifts of appreciated property have been considered the “best value” in charitable giving. There are multiple benefits to making a gift of this type. In addition to a charitable contribution tax deduction, you may be able to avoid paying capital gains tax on the increase in the value of the assets.
Stock Gifts
Make a gift of stock/securities by using an electronic stock transfer.
Qualified Charitable Distributions
Traditional IRA-holders who are 70.5 year of age or older may transfer money from their IRA to make charitable donations.
You’ve worked hard for what you have, so you care about your legacy. Gift planning integrates your charitable gift into your overall financial, tax, and estate planning to maximize benefits both to you and to University of Wisconsin–Stout.
Scholarships at the University of Wisconsin-Stout are more than financial aid. Scholarships empower students to pursue their dreams and ensure that the University of Wisconsin-Stout’s 125-year tradition of excellence will continue to be available to students, regardless of their financial situations. When you establish a scholarship at UW-Stout, you directly help students realize the dream of a college education and prepare for a successful career.
You may wish to donate a gift in honor of a loved one, a retiring colleague, or a former mentor. These gifts can be directed to any area of the university you wish. This is a wonderful way to recognize the importance someone has had on your life by making an impact on the life of a student.
Many employers will match donations made to the UW-Stout Foundation by their employees. These matching funds could double or triple the impact of your original gift. Gifts of cash, and in some cases, securities are eligible for matching. When a gift is matched, the matched amount goes toward the same program that your initial donation supported.
