Endowed Gifts
Your Gift Can Last Forever
An endowment gift to the University at Buffalo today provides a brighter picture for our future. When you make a donation to our endowment or create one, you give a gift with both immediate and long-term benefits. Endowments can be created in your name, or named to honor someone else.
Endowment donations are invested. A portion of the annual income from the investment is used to address immediate needs at UB. The remaining funds are reinvested to ensure indefinite support, so that your gift continues to benefit the university for generations to come.

Longtime supporters Susan and Charlie have two goals: First, they want to make sure UB continues to receive support after they're gone. Second, they want to memorialize Charlie's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jones.
Susan and Charlie make a $25,000 donation to UB, which we invest, and each year, a portion of the income from the invested money will be used to support our mission in honor of the Joneses. Plus, Susan and Charlie qualify for a federal income tax charitable deduction on their taxes.
