Build a Legacy for Future Generations
 

At the Central Washington University Foundation, we look forward to building a legacy for current and future students and faculty. We do so with confidence, thanks to the generous and thoughtful support from alumni and friends who have become members of our Legacy Society through their planned gifts and those who may to do so in the future. Planned gifts continue to be a vital source of support to the university now and in the future.

Benefits for Family and the Central Washington University Foundation

There are several types of plans. Many of these have wonderful benefits for the gift donors. Many of these families have enjoyed increased income and generous tax savings. You might start by meeting these friends. Just click on the picture and you can view each story.

Gifts of Retirement Assets and Insurance
"Although we are pleased to fund an annual scholarship to help a worthy student today, we wanted to make a more significant gift in the future. Naming the CWU Foundation as beneficiary to a life insurance policy was an easy way to accomplish our goal." More on Gifts of Retirement Assets and Insurance >>.


Gifts That Give You Guaranteed Income for Life
"At our age, it made a lot of sense to create a charitable gift annuity because of the attractive rates. It provides us with a guaranteed income for life and a means to benefit future students and faculty." More on Gifts That Give You Guaranteed Income for Life >>.


Professor Paul E. LeRoy
When emeritus professor of history Paul LeRoy passed away in 2008, CWU lost a favorite retired faculty member and a close friend. He is remembered by former students and colleagues with much fondness. More on Professor Paul E. LeRoy >>.


CWU Scholarships: Creating Opportunities for the next generation
For children in foster care, the future often holds no promise. For the more than half-million foster children, the daily necessities-such as a stable home, school, and family-are the highest priorities. More on CWU Scholarships: Creating Opportunities for the next generation >>.
