Yes, you have the option to designate your gifts for a specific purpose. However, it’s important to know that the program aims to strengthen the entire University community. Therefore, a significant portion of your gift will enable the University to continue to supple the many vital central resources that make individual units and programs successful. Each day, the University invests substantial funding to ensure each department is successful. Gifts with restrictions will result in a 75%/25% split, with 25% directly supporting the designated department and the remaining 75% going toward indirect costs covered by the University to ensure the department’s ongoing success.
