How to Give<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Current Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you want your gift for the Texas A&M College of Architecture to go to work immediately, a current gift of cash or securities might be the best option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give by Credit Card<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Texas A&M Foundation accepts credit card payments online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give by Mail<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Write a check payable to the Texas A&M Foundation<\/a>, note in the memo field how you would like your gift directed (i.e. Dean\u2019s Excellence Fund, or a specific scholarship, chair or program) and mail to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deanna Cowan
Texas A&M College of Architecture
Coke Building 207
College Station, TX 77843-3137<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more information contact Deanna Cowan at dcowan@tamu.edu<\/a> or by phone at 979.862.5765.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matching Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You may be able to increase the amount of your gift by taking advantage of a corporate matching program. Several companies offer retirees and widowers of employees the same matching gift opportunities they offer current employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your employer offers matching gifts, you may be able to make a larger donation to the Texas A&M College of Architecture without further reducing your own assets and still receive a charitable deduction for the amount you give.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each qualifying employer has a slightly different process and deadline, so be sure to check with your HR department for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honorary & Memorial Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A gift in memory or in honor of a relative, friend, student, professor, or teacher is a generous and thoughtful way to recognize a person’s life and accomplishments. When you make an honorary or memorial gift, the Texas A&M Foundation will notify the honoree or next of kin, and the gift is used as you specified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Planned Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Create an estate and gift plan that will achieve a lasting impact. Tailor the gift to your unique needs and interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more information on establishing a Planned Gift in the College of Architecture contact Jennifer Hester at jhester@txamfoundation.com<\/a>, 979.845.7479 (office).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Corporate Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Corporate support comes in two forms: giving and volunteering. Contributions from organizations support students, faculty, programs and capital improvements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volunteering enables advanced access to emerging ideas and technologies through faculty-executive exchanges, advisory council memberships and guest lectures. Please contact us if you or your company is interested in serving on a board, as a mentor or volunteer, or engaging with the college in some other unique way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gifts of Real Estate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Multiple types of property for the benefit of the Texas A&M College of Architecture may be accepted by the Texas A&M Foundation to benefit the college, including residential, commercial, farm and ranch land, forest land, and oil and gas interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
