LIFE INSURANCE
Create a charitable life insurance trust. Simply name the Nicolet College Foundation as a beneficiary of a current or new life insurance policy. Such a contribution may help you make a larger gift than you had hoped.
RETIREMENT PLAN
Benefit from coordinating your retirement planning and charitable giving. By donating some or all of your retirement plan to the Nicolet College Foundation, your estate can save a considerable amount of taxes while assisting Nicolet students.
MEMORIAL & HONORARY GIFTS
Many people choose to honor a friend or loved one through a gift to the Foundation.
BEQUEST
Continue to impact the future of Nicolet students by making a gift in your will or trust. Bequests are exempt from estate taxes. Please let us know if you have already included the Nicolet College Foundation in your estate plans.
SECURITIES & PROPERTIES
Give appreciated securities or real estate that are deductible at fair market value to a certain percentage of income.
CHARITABLE REMAINDER TRUST
Make a meaningful future gift, while simultaneously providing income for life or for a specific term of years, for yourself and/or other beneficiaries. When the trust ends, the remaining assets benefit the purpose you have chosen.
Recognizing Lifetime Philanthropy
E.T. “Tug” Juday helped us to establish a student assistance program to help students stay enrolled and reach their goals. In this video, two of Tug’s children, Pat and Dave Juday, who are also donors, share what drove their father’s philanthropic spirit. Tug’s beliefs aligned with the Nicolet College mission of “transforming lives and enriching communities.” He understood that what many of us consider to be small financial setbacks, too often create big obstacles, forcing students to give up. E.T. “Tug” Juday was posthumously honored in 2018 with the Association of Fundraising Professionals Northeast Wisconsin Chapter’s Outstanding Lifetime Philanthropy Award. We continue to recognize and honor his contributions to student success and Nicolet College.
The Donor Bill of Rights
Philanthropy is based on voluntary action for the common good. It is a tradition of giving and sharing that is primary to the quality of life. To assure that philanthropy merits the respect and trust of the general public, and that donors and prospective donors can have full confidence in the not-for-profit organizations and causes they are asked to support, we declare that all donors have rights.
