Pledges You may make a commitment to UCSF payable over a period of three to five years. A pledge demonstrates your intention to make a gift to the University and may allow you to give more generously over a period of time than would be possible through a single contribution. Outright gifts include cash, securities, real estate or personal property. You can make a bequest through your will or by means of a revocable trust. Trusts Charitable remainder trusts are gifts that provide income for life for the donor or a loved one.
Endowed gifts are an enduring tribute to the beliefs and values of the donor.
