The generosity of donors provides the University of Colorado with the resources to offer the best quality education possible, for today and into the future. To that end, we offer many giving options - from naming us as a beneficiary in your will to a more complex trust arrangement.

We’ve created this website to make your options for charitable giving clear and accessible. It is our hope that you will use these tools to plan the best method of giving to the University of Colorado to meet your specific philanthropic needs.

This website is interactive and fun to use:

  • If you're already considering certain giving options, simply click on Compare Gift Options and select the gifts you want to learn more about.
  • If you're not sure how our gift plans can meet your financial goals, enter the Legacy Planner™, and follow the trail to the gifts that will work best for you. Each option you select leads to more choices, letting you design your own gift plan.
  • Request a personalized gift illustration from us that details your plan, read our most recent Tip of the Day, and refer to the FAQ's and Glossary sections.

Welcome! We hope you enjoy the site.
