Ways of Giving

Recurring Gifts
Recurring gifts are not only easy, automatic, and customizable, they are also one of the most impactful ways you can give because they ensure predictability for our programs. Steady sources of funding allow us to better serve our students. Interested in making a recurring gift from your checking account (ACH) or credit card to the Center for Educational Outreach? Please contact Jess Santi, Associate Director of Development, Student Access and Opportunity at [email protected].
Endowments, Cash Gifts, and Multi-year Pledges
A lifetime gift to the Center for Educational Outreach can have an immediate impact on the students of Southeast Michigan and beyond. Cash gifts of all sizes support our mission to increase access to education and collegiate opportunities to all, while endowments and multi-year pledges allow donors to make larger commitments with flexibility.
Planned Gifts and Bequests
The generations that come after us will shape our future. The legacy of those that came before will provide our foundation. Establishing a planned gift can be a meaningful way to enshrine a donor's legacy for generations to come. Gifts such as these can also have financial and emotional lifetime advantages to the donor, including possible tax benefits and the opportunity to be recognized for their contributions by the communities directly impacted by their gift.
Matching Gifts
Increase the impact of your gift by exploring matching gifts today! Many companies match the donations to the University of Michigan made by their current or retired employees, meaning your gift could be doubled or even tripled.
