Endowed Gifts

A healthy endowment is a benchmark for a strong and stable institution. By supporting the endowment through gifts of scholarships, fellowships, professorships and more, you help UD fulfill its mission of providing a world-class education and create opportunities for generations of Blue Hens to come.

The minimum to endow a fund at the University of Delaware is $50,000. If you are interested in learning more, please contact the Office of Development and Alumni Relations.

 

Matching Gifts

Employer matching gift programs will often match employees’ charitable gifts dollar-for-dollar, but some companies will give double or even triple the original donation amount.

Find out if your support is eligible for matching to multiply the impact of your gift.

Honor Your Loved Ones

UD invites our community to honor or memorialize loved ones through philanthropy gifts to the University. No matter what their size, gifts to celebrate a family member, classmate, faculty member or friend can be designated toward any existing UD program or fund—perhaps one that would be meaningful to the honored or memorialized individual.

The University of Delaware appreciates your donation and your support of our mission. Our budget and ongoing financial health rely on accounting for and accepting irrevocable, non-refundable donations from the public. Therefore, the University of Delaware (UD) considers all donations to be nonrefundable. UD may consider returning donations to the donor, but only in limited circumstances. If you have made an error with your donation or changed your mind about contributing to our organization, please contact us in writing at gift-updates@udel.edu. Depending on the circumstances, UD will consider your request if it is made within ninety (90) days of the original donation. UD may ask for proof of identity before issuing a refund, and refunds are normally returned using the original method of payment. For example, if your donation was made by credit card, your refund will be credited to that same account. You are responsible for all tax considerations that may arise if your donation is refunded.
