Support the Educational Advancement Foundation
Your Support is Vital
The Educational Advancement Foundation succeeds through the generosity of friends, corporate and community supporters and people like you. Generous contributions make it possible for individuals from all walks of life to complete a program of study, obtain seed money to transform an idea into a reality or start or complete a research project. Making a difference would not be possible without the commitment of EAF donors.
There are many ways to support the Foundation's work. Examples include memorial gifts, stocks, bonds, named endowment funds or fellowships, bequests, trusts, annuities, charitable remainder trusts, charitable lead trusts and charitable gift annuities.
Workplace Giving
Federal employees may make donations to EAF through the Combined Federal Campaign. Select #11173 on the pledge card and indicate the contribution amount. [Note: Wisconsin state employees should select #4002.] Please submit a copy of your pledge sheet to the EAF office, so that we can record your giving appropriately.
Matching Gifts Programs
Company matching gifts can double your donation to EAF. Check with your company's Human Resource Department to determine if this is an option available and for the required documentation.
Gifts in Honor or Memorial
Your gift will have additional significance and meaning if you choose to contribute in honor or memory of a loved one. EAF will send a card to those you designate to receive notification of your honor or memorial gift. To make a gift in someone's honor, please include the name and address of that person. To make a gift in someone's memory, please include the name of that person and also the name and address of any individual(s), family or friends you would like us to notify.
Legacy Gifting
Consider a method of planned giving. Examples include gifts of life insurance (such as naming EAF as the policy beneficiary) and gifts left to the Foundation in Wills, which don't need to be large or prevent you from taking care of your family and loved one.
Corporate Giving
A strategic partnership with the Educational Advancement Foundation can help your company achieve its philanthropic goals.
