There are many ways to support New Mexico State University. Gifts may be unrestricted use, or you may specify that your gift be targeted to a particular program or purpose. You may designate further that the gift be placed in an endowed fund to provide support to NMSU in perpetuity. If a gift is not designated as an endowed fund, it is considered a current use gift.
Some donors make current gifts and others choose to satisfy their commitment over a period of time.
You may make a life income gift and receive income from it. Under certain circumstances, your gift may entitle you to a charitable income tax deduction or estate tax benefits. These gifts are considered planned gifts . As with all financial considerations, we encourage you to discuss potential tax advantages and other aspects of charitable giving with your attorney, tax advisor or financial consultant. However you choose to give, you can be assured that your gift will help to secure the future of this great institution.
