As members of the UIU community, we have a shared mission to support our students and strengthen the University. The dedication, time and talent of our faculty and staff are always valued and appreciated. We are especially thankful for those who choose to pay it forward and give back to the University.

The Advancement Department is excited to continue and strengthen its Faculty & Staff Giving program as a way to thank and recognize employees who are also donors to the University. This program will help us to further develop a culture of giving among employees and hopefully instill within students an inspiration to give back someday as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my gift designation options?

However, there are numerous areas of designation you can choose from including academics, athletics, scholarships, special projects and more. Visit uiu.edu/give and select the designation drop down to view all options.

Are there tax benefits of giving to UIU?

Yes! UIU is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and your contribution is considered charitable. Donors will receive a gift receipt from the Alumni Office.

Tell me more about the Donor Club program?

Consider monthly installments. Some members set a goal to join a select club at the beginning of each fiscal year (July 1). Then, they schedule monthly contributions to spread out their gift throughout the year (through June 30). This can easily be done via a payroll deduction, EFT or recurring credit card gift.
