But, it can be a little confusing, with so many options and so many terms. Use the information below to give you a better idea of what form your gift might take to best reflect your intentions. Use these links to skip directly to the section you want to see, or scroll down the page to read about all of these options. Annual Funds Endowed Funds Current Use Gifts Deferred Gifts Annual Funds Annual funds are current-use financial resources used to support priority programs not covered through state funding. Many donors choose to designate their annual gifts to the College's Fund for Excellence. The Dean of the College annually determines the priorities for this fund. In recent years it has supported our minority student recruitment efforts, enriched student leadership programs, and enhanced technology training for student and faculty. Annual fund dollars can also be designated to the William Chandler Bagley Scholars Program. Entirely funded through private gifts, this program enables us to provide merit-based scholarships and fellowships to some of our most talented students. During 2002-2003 academic year, 37 students directly benefited from this program. Wherever you designate your annual fund gift, you can be assured that your donation is going directly to support the research, teaching and service missions of the College of Education. With no minimum gift, this is a great way to begin your investing in the College of Education. Endowed Funds Endowed funds are gifts large enough to generate yearly income. The principal remains intact through investment and only the interest is used. Endowed funds are attractive because they guarantee that financial resources will be available for years to come. Generally, endowed funds are named in recognition of the donor or donors. The size of the donation to establish a permanently endowed fund is determined by the purpose of the gift (i.e. scholarship, professorship, etc...) as well as by current financial market considerations. To learn more about creating an endowed fund you can visit the University of Illinois Foundation web site or contact one of the College gift officers. Current Use Gifts Current use gifts can be put to use by the College immediately upon receipt from the donor. Examples might include a newly endowed scholarship, a one-time gift to purchase new computers for one of our departments, or a donation to one of our Annual Funds. When you hear the words current use, it basically means a gift that can be put into immediate action. Deferred Gifts Deferred gifts are ones that are designed to be put to use at a future time. While these gift agreements may be made at any time, the execution schedule of the donation is the result of careful planning that integrates the donor's charitable gift into his or her overall financial, tax, and estate planning objectives in order to maximize the benefits for both the donor and the College. Examples of deferred gifts might include an estate bequest. Maintained by Chris Harris 244-8335 last updated 11/15/2004 feedback form

Fake (plastic) pearls are the perfect complement to this elegant gold wrapping paper. Get more for your buck by using giftwrap such as this clay-pot wrap, which can be a gift as well, . A shrink-wrapped gift basket is always a treasure during the holiday season. Figure A Figure B Craft Paper Wrap This particular wrap was done with kraft paper (guest Michael Basler says you can use a garbage bag as well) and spray paint. Here's how: Crumple the kraft paper (or garbage bag). Flatten out the paper and spray-paint it -- from an angle, not straight down. Be sure to use a color (red, green, etc.) that will contrast with the kraft paper or garbage bag. Decorate with raffia and a homemade tag or purchased card. Elegant Gold Wrap with Fake Pearls This gift is more about the trim than the actual wrapping paper, which is basic gold giftwrap. Simply wrap a string of plastic "pearls" around the package; use hot glue at the beginning and the end of the string to keep the pearls in place. Attach a plastic "pearl" button to the front for an elegant holiday package. Note: Other great embellishments include silk leaves and cord tassels. Clay Pot Wrap Another crafty idea is to fill two small clay pots with a gift such as garlic, place the pots together with raffia or decorative paper-twist ribbon and top with dried berries. Some other ideas include using a large clay pot that's decorated with gold embellishments and filled with gardening supplies, or a painted one whose saucer is being used as the lid -- filled with goodies such as honey, etc., and tied together with rope. Shrink-Wrapped Gift Basket Yes, you can shrink-wrap a gift yourself. Here's how: Fill a basket with any kind of goodies (chocolates, cookies, etc.) desired, and wrap the basket in a shrink-wrap bag, which can be found at any craft or party store. Melt the shrink-wrap with a blow-dryer ( figure A ). Note: Shrink wrap comes in colors as well as clear -- red, green or gold would be perfect for the holidays. Other Wrapping Ideas from Michael Basler: Wrap a bottle of wine with organza fabric, tied with ribbons and decorated with a string of fake "pearls" and a bow. Use denim fabric that's frayed at the edge for compact diskettes, DVDs or video tapes. Simply tie the ends with cowhide cord. For the inside of the box, consider surrounding the gift with different-color tissue-paper rosettes ( figure B ). RESOURCES: Wraps and Roll-Ups Model: 1558672095 Author: Dona Z.
