Your support is vital to the continued advancement of the academic programs of the University of Delaware. Gifts can be designated for receipt by a specific college, academic department or program. For example, if you give $500 to the College of Business and Economics or a particular department or program, the college or program will receive $500. There is no administrative fee attached to any gift to the University.

When giving, be sure to inquire at your workplace about matching gifts. More than 1,000 companies sponsor matching gift programs for employees and their families. Most companies match on a dollar per dollar basis. Some companies match on 2-to-1, 3-to-1 or even 4-to-1 ratios. Since each company manages its own program, please contact your personnel or benefits office for more information.
