Philanthropic Gifts
Philanthropic gifts are essential financial support for the distinctive programs of John Carroll University. The university welcomes charitable gifts from alumni, parents, friends, corporations and foundations to enhance the quality of academic programs and enrich the learning environment.
Unrestricted and Restricted Gifts
The education of each student is significantly subsidized, even those paying full tuition. The university provides over $29 million annually in institutional grant and scholarship assistance. Because tuition does not cover the full costs of the John Carroll learning experience, the university relies on the generosity of benefactors.
Gifts to the Carroll Fund are unrestricted and allow university leaders to apply resources where they are needed most. These gifts keep the university responsive to new opportunities and are applied to a wide range of services that contribute to a more effective learning environment, including career counseling, academic programs, technology, health care, and student life.
Restricted gifts are designated by the donor to specific areas such as an academic program, athletics scholarships, student services, spiritual life program, building improvements, or other defined interest. Usually restricted gifts are spent as they are received on a specific project.
Endowments Gifts
Gifts can be made to establish an endowment. The endowment funds are invested and a portion of the interest earned is used to support scholarships, programs, faculty work, or a specific area designated by the donor. These gifts are in perpetuity. More information on endowment and deferred gifts is available from the University Advancement Office.
Bequests
John Carroll University benefits greatly from benefactors who remember the university in their estate plans, trusts, and wills. Bequests can be made by including the following statement in a new will or in a simple amendment to an existing will.
I hereby, give, devise and bequeath to JCU, a not-for-profit corporation located in University Heights, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, the sum of ____________dollars ($________), or (___________shares of ___________________), or (___________% of my estate), or (________% of the remainder of my estate) to be used for its general purposes or to be used for the following purpose ______________(examples: scholarship, academic program, or other stated purpose).
It is strongly recommended that wills be drafted with legal advice and reviewed by an attorney. The University Advancement Office can provide more details on gift opportunities.
