Honor Someone Special With a Gift in Their Name
If you have a loved one who has been impacted by the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, establishing a memorial or tribute gift is a meaningful way to honor them or celebrate a special occasion, such as a birthday, while supporting our mission. Your memorial or tribute gift will extend the legacy of your loved one and will make a difference.
An Example of How It Works
When Sarah's father passed away, she knew she wanted to do something that would establish a lasting legacy for him. She remembered that during his lifetime he was always praising UT for its tireless efforts to better his community.
Sarah decided to establish an endowment in her father's name at UT using appreciated securities. Not only will her father's legacy live on through the endowment, but Sarah also received a federal income tax charitable deduction (because she itemizes her taxes) and eliminated capital gains tax on the securities.
