Endowed Gifts

Longtime supporters of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Charlie and Susan have two goals: First, they want to make sure UW-Madison continues to receive support after they are gone. Second, they want to create a lasting legacy for Charlie’s parents.

Charlie and Susan make a $25,000 donation to the University of Wisconsin Foundation, to benefit the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We invest their gift, and each year, a portion of the income from the invested money will be used to support our mission in honor of Charlie’s parents. Plus, Charlie and Susan qualify for a federal income tax charitable deduction on their taxes.
