Deferred giving (sometimes called planned giving) is a term for a variety of financial vehicles that benefit both you and the College of Pharmacy, offering creative solutions to financial challenges while helping achieve your specific charitable goals. Some of the most popular forms of deferred giving are:
 

• Bequests

• Charitable Trusts

Endowed and Expendable Research Funds

The advancement of scientific knowledge through research plays an integral part in preparing students for careers in pharmacy. Indeed, students working closely with faculty of the College have an active role in developing new drugs, drug delivery systems, clinical drug therapy, and pharmacy and health care systems.

 

To ensure that present and future scholars can continue the College's distinguished tradition of excellence in pharmaceutical research, the College seeks additional funds for research. Such funding will support novel research and preliminary investigations that hold the promise of new discoveries and will attract funding from sources outside the University. Gifts of $10,000 or more would help this effort.
