Making an impact through planned giving
Annual gifts support all areas of the school and are considered to be gifts for current-use purposes. We recognize leadership annual giving donors in our Dean's Circle. Endowment giving are "gifts for tomorrow" that secure our institutional future. Endowment funds provide student scholarships and fellowships as well as professorships and chairs. These funds grow and provide funding in perpetuity. Donors may give to establish special funds for service and research activities that connect the interests of the donor and that are integral to our mission.
School of Education alumni and friends are making an impact on their own terms — and timeline. Planned giving is now a preferred way for many to give a gift to the school that is personally meaningful. (Read more from the Spring 2017 issue of our Momentum newsletter.)
Make a lasting investment in the future of the School of Education. Learn more about planned giving from VCU’s Office of Development and Alumni Relations website.
