Becoming a MELC Partner

Our ability to engage our many communities and to provide financial support for our students is directly due to the support and leadership of MELC’s partners. There are many ways of becoming a partner with MELC depending on the level of commitment with which one feels most comfortable—from contributing an annual gift to establishing an endowment.

For more information about giving, contact Paul Siscel, MELC Administrator at portland@uw.edu or 206.543.0475.

Giving options include:

Making a gift online now – To support MELC priorities.

Establishing an endowment – The gift that keeps on giving.

Considering a planned gift – What a great way to honor MELC.

Making a gift of securities – This offers a great tax advantage.

Considering a major gift – Major gifts make up a large percentage of total dollars but come from a very small percentage of donors. Please consider becoming one of the distinguished donors.

Providing in-kind gifts – (donations of tangible personal property or equipment). Be creative!

Partnering with Corporations & Foundations – Discover the tax benefits at a company level.
