Giving

other special gift opportunities are available to alumni, parents,

Reunion
Giving
Throughout the years, reunion classes have shown their generosity by
making gifts to JCSU. While participation by all alumni is
important, reunion classes can make a significant contribution to
commemorate that special anniversary...a renewed commitment to
educational excellence at JCSU.
Legacy
Society
Established in 1997, the JCSU Legacy
Society recognizes individuals who contribute to the future of the
university by leaving more than memories. They include JCSU in
their estate plans through endowed scholarships, property or other
investments. Many people think that making a legacy gift is
exclusive to graduates who have been out for 20 years or more.
However, that is not true. It is important for everyone to
think about your estate, no matter how big or small, and how you
want it to be dispersed.
Naming
Opportunities
The opportunity to place the name of an individual or corporation on
a building, room, center or scholarship at a university is a
time-honored tradition. The naming of facilities and academic
programs recognizes an individual’s high scholarly distinction,
devotion, distinguished service and a generous gift. Any and
all combinations of gifts, pledges, and irrevocable deferred gift
arrangements are welcome for naming commitments. Guidelines
for naming opportunities are established by the university
administration and approved by the Board of Trustees.
Would you like to have your name placed
permanently in Biddle Hall? There are still seats available in
Biddle auditorium for naming opportunities. Donors can name a
seat for themselves, or a loved one. Each seat will have a
brass plaque with a donor’s name posted on the back of the
chair. The cost is $250 each. If you are interested, please
call Karen Lawler at 704-330-1418.
Matching
Gifts
Many alumni and friends can increase the impact of their
contributions to JCSU by taking advantage of a matching-gift
opportunity. Many corporations offer their employees the
benefit of a matching gift program. If you or your spouse work for a
matching-gift employer, you may be eligible to have all or a portion
of your gifts to JCSU matched. These matching funds increase the
positive impact that your contributions have on our students. To see
if your employer offers a matching gift program, please consult your
human resources office.
Golden
Bulls 100 Club
The Golden Bulls 100 Club, an athletic booster organization, has for
many years been an important element in the university's quest to
provide our student athletes with the very best service the
university can offer. Through various fund-raising efforts,
the 100 Club provides financial support for the entire athletic
program and sponsors and organizes such things as banquets,
tournaments and promotions. The Booster Club also provides awards
for the sport banquets, financial assistance for media publicity and
much more.
