Ways to Give
SUNY Cortland is fortunate to have the support of thousands of alumni, friends and parents. All gifts make it possible for Cortland to provide its many students a fulfilling and life changing educational experience. As you consider your gift to Cortland, please know that there are a number of options available. These options are detailed below. No matter how large your gift, please know that your support is truly appreciated.
Matching Gift Program
Employer matching gifts are a great way to increase your donation. You or your spouse may work for a company that will double, or even triple, your contribution to SUNY Cortland.
It’s simple. Stop by your company’s human resources office and they will provide you with a matching gift form to be completed and returned with your gift to SUNY Cortland.
Gift/Estate Planning
Many alumni and friends of SUNY Cortland would like to make a major gift to the College; however, giving a large outright donation during their lifetime may not be possible.
The solution may be to plan a gift that benefits the College in the future. With planning, you can achieve your philanthropic goals while meeting your, and your family’s, lifestyle needs.
