Thank you for wanting to transform the lives of CSU students!
By establishing a scholarship or contributing to an existing scholarship fund, you can give them the chance to pursue a degree without the stress of debt.
Your gift could be the determining factor in whether a student can even attend the Colorado State University Foundation. Thanks to you, they will have access to educational opportunities and unique experiences that can translate into world-changing careers and callings.
Setting Up a Scholarship Is Easier Than You Think
The best part? You can make this momentous difference without cash. Consider the following methods:
- Leave a gift in your will or living trust to Colorado State University.
- Make Colorado State University a beneficiary of a retirement plan or life insurance policy that you no longer need.
- Recommend grants from your donor advised fund.
- Give appreciated assets, such as stock.
What Will a Scholarship Do?
- Make education accessible. Tuition aid often plays a major role in whether a student can attend CSU and have the kind of experience that has enriched the lives of so many.
- Attract hard-working, dedicated students. You’ll help create a campus full of brilliant minds that can focus on their studies and worry less about paying off loans.
- Teach generosity. Students who receive a scholarship see firsthand how philanthropy can shape a person’s life. It may ignite a lifetime commitment to giving back.
- Honor a loved one or mentor. Endowed scholarships are a meaningful way to honor a person that had a profound impact on your student life or career. Your tribute will last far into the future.
