You can also support teaching, research, learning initiatives, or student programming at Queen's. Your staff partner will work with you to establish a fund that reflects your wishes.
Once the fund is established, your staff partner will work with you to create a personalized online giving page to encourage support to your special fund.
You have two fund options to consider:
An endowment is a gift for life. Your original gift is invested and managed in perpetuity by Queen鈥檚 University as part of a pooled fund. The annual income generated by your endowed fund is used to support the specific purpose for which the fund was established. Many donors who have established endowment funds in the past continue making gifts to them over time. You can establish a fund with an or as a 5-year pledge commitment or through a deferred gift arrangement, such as a . Depending on the type of fund you wish to create, it may be subject to funding requirements. Your staff partner will be happy to share this information with you.
An expendable fund is established for immediate use, with no investment component. Depending on the type of fund you wish to create, it will require an annual commitment for a total of 5 years and will be subject to funding requirements.

Your tax-deductible gift covers the cost of the design, production and installation of the plate. The remainder of your gift will help make extraordinary experiences happen for students and the community by attracting internationally acclaimed artists to the Isabel, and enhance the interdisciplinary activities between Music, Drama, Film & Media, and Studio Art.
