Philanthropic support is therefore essential.
Contributions from you, our alumni, are especially significant. Corporations, foundations, and other individuals look to the support of alumni, those deemed closest to this institution, as a benchmark in determining their own giving. Outright Gifts and Pledges Gifts may be in the form of cash, checks, money orders or bank drafts. Substantial gifts can be paid in pledge payments over a maximum of five years. Securities, Real Estate and Personal Property Gifts of securities, real estate or personal property should be coordinated by the Development Office before a transfer is executed to ensure full benefits for both you and the Medical College of Wisconsin.
