Every gift, regardless of size, is properly recognized with a personalized and signed letter of appreciation. Also, all contributors are listed on the Honor Roll of Contributors, which is printed annually as a major part of the UND Foundation Annual Report . Contributors may restrict their contributions for the benefit and support of a college, department, scholarship, or other priority needs, such as music, athletics, and so forth. The UND Foundation Giving Clubs Giving clubs are important for recognizing levels of giving and to encourage donors to reach for a higher plateau. Giving clubs also enhance volunteer leadership involvement.
Contributors also receive a plaque or an attractive ice sculpture.
Membership in giving clubs can be attained through pledges and deferred gifts along with a Donor's direct or immediate contribution. Some of the programs available within the UND Foundation include testamentary giving, life estates, gift annuities, and charitable remainder unitrusts. More information on Planned Giving options The UND Foundation planned and deferred giving programs are actively promoted among alumni and friends through specialized mailings, the Alumni Review , and almost always by personal visitation. Each issue highlights a special topic and solicits a request for a more detailed booklet. These booklets are available at the UND Alumni Center.
