This service provides information on submitting a donation (check/cash) to Advancement Services for processing.
A gift is the voluntary contribution of external support by a donor to the University without any requirement of an economic or another tangible benefit in return beyond what any general member of the public would receive. The contributor of a gift is referred to as the “donor” and the donor’s intent must be philanthropic or charitable. The primary beneficiary of a gift is the general public and not the donor. Gifts may be either unrestricted or restricted. A restricted gift does not imply that the donor benefits from the gift nor is there an implied quid pro quo. Valid restrictions pertain to the permitted use of gift funds rather than providing a result to the donor. To verify that your request for a gift fund is in keeping with Barry's policy, please refer to the attached form 6.08 Gift & Grant Classification & Procedure For Determination.
