Your gift can be designated in the following ways:
Annual Giving;
Endowment;
Capital Projects;
Gift Planning.
The difference between an annual gift and an endowed gift is that the annual gift is used immediately and needs to be renewed each year, while an endowed gift provides a source of perpetual support. When a gift is made to the endowment, it is invested for long-term growth.
The earnings generated by the investment are used to support the scholarship or operation needs in the area you choose to endow.
Cash Donations ~ Most gifts to the Javelina Club take this form and it is as easy as writing a checkor using your MasterCard or Visa. Checks shouldbe made payable to “Javelina Club.” Annualgifts help grow and enhance Javelina Athletics. Contributions can be unrestricted or designatedto the sport of your choice. An unrestrictedgift will go where it is needed most—towardsscholarship, academic support and recruiting.
When you designate your gift to a particular sport, it will go towards the scholarship needs of that program.
Securities ~ You may eliminate paying capital gains tax and receive an income tax charitable deduction for gifts of long-term appreciated securities.
Matching Gifts ~ Many companies will match your contribution to the Javelina Club. Submit your company’s matching gift form with your contribution and it can significantly increase your benefits associated with giving.
Gifts in Kind ~ Gifts of goods or services can be a great financial assistance to Javelina Athletics while offering the donor a tax deduction for the fair market value of the gift. Please consult your tax advisor and contact the Javelina Club office for further information.
Lifetime Levels ~ The Team Behind the Team The Texas A&I and Legends Societies are
comprised of friends of Javelina Athletics who go the extra mile and believe a strong athletics program increases the University’s national visibility, and enhances individual character and community spirit. Methods of giving include bequests, trusts, annuities, directed retirement assets, life insurance and real estate. All major and cumulative gifts and pledges benefitting Javelina Athletics of $ 33,333 or greater qualify
for involvement. Similar to a private business, Javelina Athletics heavily relies on the revenues it generates. Private support at this level of philanthropy provides the “lifeblood” for Javelina Athletics.
Gift Planning ~ Many planned gifts provide benefits to you and your family, such as
significant tax savings and lifetime income. Some of the options of deferred giving include:
• Charitable gift annuities
• Deferred gift annuities
• Living trusts
• Wills
The Javelina Club, working with the Texas A&M University-Kingsville Foundation, can help you determine the gift plan that best meets your financial and philanthropic goals.
