Western New England College: Gift Purposes WELCOME AREAS OF NEED ANNUAL GIVING ENDOWED FUNDS PLANNED GIVING Life Income Gifts Order Booklets PARENT'S FUND DONORS' STORIES DONOR RECOGNITION SOCIETIES WAYS TO VOLUNTEER STAFF CONTACT US GIVE ONLINE Gift Purposes Supporters of Western New England College have two broad options for designating the use of their planned gifts, Unrestricted Gifts or Restricted Gifts. For Restricted Gifts, we ask that you please contact us for further information before finalizing your gift documents. Many supporters make contributions to Western New England College in the form of unrestricted gifts. Unrestricted gifts have no specific purpose designated by the donor. These gifts are extremely helpful because they can be used by the College for the most pressing needs or appropriate purposes at the time the gift is received. Most planned gifts -- such as retirement plan assets, bequests, life insurance, charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, and life estates -- will not come to the College until years or even decades from now (these are called deferred gifts). Because the College's funding needs and priorities change over time, leaving your gift unrestricted allows for the greatest flexibility by the College in determining your gift's most appropriate use. For the types of planned gifts mentioned above, please consider an unrestricted gift. You can designate that your gift be unrestricted for use by the College as a whole, or that it be for unrestricted use specifically by one or more of the Schools of Arts and Sciences, Business, Engineering, or Law. You might prefer that your gift be used for a certain purpose. For planned gifts that will provide immediate funds, such as charitable lead trusts or outright gifts of real estate that will be sold upon receipt, you could designate your gift for an area that is currently targeted by the College for support. These options can be reviewed under Areas of Need . Two areas of support that will be of great help for the foreseeable future are: Financial Aid , which provides assistance to students to attain their educational goals without having to taking on high levels of debt. For further discussion, please see Areas of Need . Endowed Funds have become a popular way for donors to provide a source of permanent support for the College. For further explanation, please see the information under Endowed Funds . Please contact us: We make every effort to accommodate the wishes of our donors. If you have in mind a specific purpose for your planned gift, whether it be for any of the areas described above or for some other area that you are considering, please contact us to discuss the gift designation. We will work with you to ensure that the gift purpose is both helpful and practical and to craft appropriate language for your planned gift documents. Contact Us .

Top Ten Gifts
BlindKiss - The Top Ten Gifts for a Blindy This Christmas The Top Ten Gifts for a Blindy This Christmas by The Thinker 10. A cassette recording of a BBC Radio Four comedy series - any series will do as obviously the Blindie, who listens to Radio Four in every spare moment (and he has a lot of those!), will find it instantly recognisable. 9. An inflatable doll - everybody has their sexual needs and you should pity those who are unable to satisfy them in the normal way.Note: This gift is applicable to males only as female Blindies are sweet, innocent, virginal creatures who have never even had an impure thought. 8. A bottle of wine - ensure that the bottle is an unusual shape and the alcohol percentage is low as the average Blindie has poor balance and you would not want to be saddled with a personal injury legal suit for 2003. 7. A large box of chocolates - a useful gift during the protracted and monotonous periods of Radio Four listening. 6. Driving lessons - this is for the Blindie that you really don't like and an absolutely fantastic way to rub it in. Note: ensure that the cost of the lessons is refundable prior to purchase otherwise this may be a rather expensive insult. 5. Pot pourri - do not worry that this gift may offend as Blindies have little or no concern for personal or domestic hygiene but they do love a good smell. 4. Any video where a blind person regains his sight (the inclusion of a love interest is preferable) - this may help to perk up your depressive Blindie over the festive season and make them a bit less annoying around the house. Don't buy this gift if you are expecting videos yourself as they may monopolise the video recorder for weeks. 3. Well known pieces of classical music (cassette not CD for safety reasons) - Blindies are not concerned with popular music, culture or society but a good classical recording will always hit the spot. 2. Silk underwear (generally for the girls only) - A well received gift which you can spend little time choosing as it will never be seen by anyone. 1. A clay model of your own head - this gift is perhaps more for your own benefit because it should ensure that, should the Blindie get the well known urge to feel other peoples faces, they won't start with yours!

Birthday Gift for November
How to Choose a Birthday Gift for November - eHow.com Clear Instructions on How To Do (just about) Everything Web eHow.com Home Family & Relationships Center Family Life How to Choose a Birthday Gift for November Before the chaotic holiday season starts, take a time-out to get a gift for a friend or loved one born in November. Steps: 1. Consider buying jewelry or collectibles with the birthday boy's or girl's birthstone. The modern stone for November is the topaz; the traditional is the citrine; the mystical stone is the pearl. All are meant to bring longevity. 2. Consider astrological attributes when purchasing a gift. The November Scorpio, born between November 1 and 22, may appreciate gifts such as a journal, incense or personalized jewelry to match the sign's intense, passionate and personal personality. 3. Rethink your ideas for the November Sagittarius, born between November 23 and 30. A novel, a daily planner or a book of philosophy might match the typical Sag's profound, witty and well-organized personality. 4. Purchase something in the astrological birthstone as an alternative to the monthly birthstone. Scorpio's birthstone is malachite, while the Sagittarius stone is the zircon. 5. Think about sending the gift of flowers; chrysanthemums are November's birth flowers. 6. Explore the possibilities of a holiday theme, such as an elegant Thanksgiving dinner or a day at the parade. Tips: Men can be quite appreciative of flowers, so don't rule out such a gift! Another birthstone for November is the diamond.
