Planned & Estate Giving: Deferred gifts through wills, bequests and trusts may also provide the funds to help UIS Athletics. Your legacy ensures student-athletes will continue to benefit from an education at UIS far into the future.

Endowed Scholarships: Endowing a scholarship allows a donor to provide support to deserving student-athletes in perpetuity. A minimum gift of $25,000 can endow a scholarship in the sports program of your choice. Gifts of cash, marketable securities and property, and insurance policies may be used. Endowments do not qualify you for Prairie Star Athletic Fund benefits.

Marketable Securities: Gifts may have significant tax advantages since you can deduct the fair value without paying capital gains on the sale of gifted stock.
