Ways to Give Now

• Designate your Annual Fund gift to the College When contributing to the ¸£Àû¼§ Annual Fund, be sure to designate your gift to the College of Business Administration. The fastest and easiest way to donate is online.

• Will your employer match your gift? to see if your employer has a matching gift program -- and multiply the impact of your gift!

• Sponsor a Classroom The Building on Excellence program is a contribution campaign that offers a limited number of recognition opportunities to individuals and/or organizations who pledge financial support to the College by sponsoring a classroom within the facility. Each sponsored area is identified with a beautiful, custom-made commemorative plaque. Sponsorship payments - and resulting tax savings - may be allocated over a five-year period. Employers' matching gifts may be applied to reduce the cost of sponsorship. Call (936) 294-4997 for availability then, to reserve your classroom, complete and return a Statement of Intent.

Plan Now to Give in the Future

• Make a Bequest A bequest can be included in a new will or added as an amendment to an existing will. Example: I give (dollar amount or percentage of estate) to the College of Business Administration at ¸£Àû¼§.
• Consider Life Insurance Name the College of Business Administration as beneficiary for all or a portion of your policy. Example: Tim's family situation has changed and he feels he no longer needs as much life insurance coverage. Tim has designated 50% of the policy proceeds to his brother and 50% to the College of Business Administration.
• Designate Retirement Funds Use a portion of your retirement accounts to make a deductible gift today, or bequest remaining funds to the College.
• Create a Trust Depending on the type of trust you establish, you may receive steady income, realize tax savings, avoid capital gains taxes, and shield your assets while making a meaningful gift to the College.
