Ways To Give

Endowments

The establishment of a permanent endowment is the unique privilege of a donor to provide perpetual funding for a valued purpose. These guidelines are intended to assist persons who are considering making a gift to establish an endowment at the LAVC Foundation. A minimum of $25,000 is required to establish a named endowment fund. The donor(s) may take up to three years to reach the minimum level provided the donor has provided the LAVC Foundation with a written record of the intent. Please email Ronya Waters watersre@lavc.edu for further information.

 

Legacy Society

The Legacy Society recognizes donors who have named the Los Angeles Valley College foundation in their Estate Plans. These donors have chosen to take advantage of various charitable giving vehicles that will benefit LAVC students in perpetuity. Member’s names are displayed on a wall near the President’s Office and in all foundation literature. Recognition of these donors inspires others to make similar contributions. Please email Ronya Waters at watersre@lavc.edu for further information.

 

Matching Gifts

Before making a gift, the LAVC Foundation encourages you to ask your employer about participation in a matching gift program. Corporations often show their support for a non-profit organization by matching or multiplying their employees’ contribution. There may be restrictions depending on the corporation. Please consult your company’s personnel office for further information.
