Campus Campaign
Recognition and Thanks

UI faculty and staff who choose to support
Good. Better. Best. Iowa through a gift to the Campus Campaign will receive the satisfaction of knowing that their contributions are helping the UI meet its strategic goals and, by example, are encouraging the continued generosity of UI alumni and friends.

Most UI colleges and other campus programs publish honor rolls and maintain honor clubs to recognize their supporters. UI-wide recognition opportunities include:

The Presidents Club
The Presidents Club permanently recognizes those who make outright gifts or pledge commitments of $40,000 or more in a 10-year period and those pledging substantial deferred support, such as through wills and trusts, to any area of the University.

The 1847 Society
When The University of Iowa observed its sesquicentennial in 1997, the UI Foundation established The 1847 Society to recognize alumni and friends who have made provisions for a deferred gift through the Foundation to benefit the University.

Which gifts will count toward the campaign?

Any gift made by a faculty or staff member to any area of The University of Iowa through the UI Foundation during the campaign period 1999-2005 qualifies as a campaign contribution.

This includes outright gifts such as cash, stocks, or real estate, as well as deferred contributions such as estate gifts, trusts, or gifts of retirement assets, such as TIAA-CREF funds.

Contributions of any size are welcome and can be made through payroll withholding; every contribution will move us closer to our goal.
