Whether you choose to give to your favorite UofL school or college, a student scholarship, laboratory upgrade or research activities, your gift to UofL makes a real difference for our students, faculty and community.

Fund for UofL gifts

The Fund for UofL is the annual giving program for University of Louisville alumni and friends. It provides the cornerstone for UofL’s success. Your annual support of the Fund for UofL helps keep the university affordable for students, provides opportunities for learning and discovery, and ensures UofL’s progress as a major metropolitan research university.

Visit our Fund for UofL web page for more information about how to give.

Planned giving

Planned gifts include gifts of stock, property, naming UofL as the beneficiary of an insurance policy or including UofL in your will. Planned gifts provide donors with excellent benefits, such as life income, future continued use of gift property, an avoidance of capital gains tax, an immediate income tax deduction and estate tax savings.

Visit our planned gifts pages to learn more about how to give.

Endowments

An endowed gift has a long-term impact because the principal remains intact to earn investment income in perpetuity. As the endowment grows, only a portion of the total investment return is used each year. This ensures endowed gifts will continue to benefit future generations. Endowed gifts may be established with gifts of $10,000 or more.
