Individual and Corporate Giving

We are happy to accept donations in any amount, from individuals or corporations, but the following categories allow you to choose the level you are comfortable with. 

The number of people over 65 is expected to almost double in 20 years. Learning new things is the best way for older adults to maintain healthy mental function. But that’s not why more than 3,000 seniors took Osher Lifelong Learning courses at KU this year. They did it for the joy of learning.

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at KU is one of the amenities that add to the quality of life in your community. Your gift helps ensure that quality of life.

Your tax-deductible gift will make a real difference. Please choose the level at which you are able to contribute.

• Supporter: $50–$74
• Patron: $75-$99
• Benefactor: $100–$249
• Sponsor: $250–$499
• Trustee: $500–$999
• Regent: $1,000+

Gifts at any level can be made "in memory of" or "in honor of" a special person.

Osher accepts major gifts (above $5,000) and planned gifts (through wills and trusts). To learn how you can support Osher’s mission while ensuring your family’s financial security, call Andy Morrison at 785-832-7327 or email amorrison@kuendowment.org.
