Ways of Giving

In making the decision to set up a planned gift or scholarship, or contribute directly to Walsh University's Annual Fund or Capital Campaign, individual circumstances vary. While tax and estate plan considerations are usually not primary reasons to become involved, federal and state tax laws may have an impact on the best way to contribute. To make a donation to Walsh University, please call or e-mail Bridgette Neisel, Vice President of University Advancement and University Relations at (330) 490-7337.

Walsh University Giving Options Include:

1. Online Donation
   Give to Walsh University online through the link at the right.
2. Outright Gift
   The simplest way to make a gift is in the form of cash, check or money order. Gifts of securities and other appreciated property assets are valuable gifts. No capital gains tax is due on the appreciation, and you receive a charitable deduction for the full fair market value.
3. Life Income Gift
   Donors may transfer cash, securities and/or real estate to Walsh University with the understanding that they or their designated beneficiaries will receive income for life or a term of years. Life Insurance and Retirement Plan Assets Donors can name Walsh University as owner and/or beneficiary of a life insurance policy or qualified retirement plan.
4. Estate Plan Gift
   Bequests by wills, irrevocable trusts and revocable trusts are an important way in which Walsh University builds its endowment.

You may also donate directly to the Walsh Fund, our annual fund that supports the University's operating budget in the areas of financial aid, library, student and faculty development.

Walsh University urges you to seek the advice of your attorney, accountant, banker, broker or other financial advisor, and we suggest you and your financial counsel consult our Development Staff before reaching a final gift decision.
