When you hear about "giving back" to BGSU, the first type of contribution that comes to mind is likely a monetary one. The
truth, however, is that many types of gifts benefit the University community - including our students, alumni and friends.
Cash or electronic fund transfers
A monthly contribution via an automatic deduction from either a checking or savings account, Visa, MasterCard, Discover and
American Express – by phone, mail, online or through securities and/or mutual funds -- should be transferred electronically
or by paper to the BGSU Foundation, Inc.
Charitable gift annuities and charitable remainder trusts
These allow a donor to transfer a gift of cash, marketable securities or property in exchange for a lifetime income.

Memorials and endowments

Corporate/company employee matching gift programs
Whether you are a BGSU faculty member conducting research or outreach, a corporation seeking to learn more about the scope
of our programs or a foundation looking for a helping hand in the neighborhood, our office can help to match the internal
and external partners so that great things can happen in the classroom, the lab, and in the community.
Please contact the BGSU Office of Alumni & Development at (888) 839-2586 or alumni@bgsu.edu for more information about these gifting options.
