Types of Gifts

Corporate Gifts

Corporate support ensures that the Adler School continues providing an outstanding education to mental health professionals working in underserved communities.

We build and sustain mutually beneficial partnerships with corporations, matching campus initiatives with your strategic needs and goals. Corporate partners may designate their gift to a specific program or initiative at the school; examples include endowing Program Chairs, sponsoring our new campus, and investing in either annual or endowed scholarship opportunities.

Planned Gifts

Deferred or planned gifts—including bequests, life-income plans, beneficiary designations, and other options for your estate—can provide long-term support for the Adler School and build a powerful legacy of giving.

Company Matching Gifts

Many companies have matching gift programs that multiply the philanthropic efforts of their employees. These programs offer an easy way to double or even triple your donation to the Adler School. Simply obtain a matching gift form from your employer’s human resources office, complete the form, and send it to the Adler School with your contribution.

Tribute and Honorary Gifts

Tribute gifts are a thoughtful way to celebrate a birthday, wedding, new baby, graduation, or any special occasion. Memorial gifts are a meaningful way to remember someone you admire or who has made a special impact on your life. If you desire, the tribute recipient or their family will be notified of your honorarium or memorial gift. The amount of the gift is kept confidential, and the tax benefit is yours to claim.
