Aloha,

    Thank you for your interest in supporting the University of Hawai'i and the many students who come to our 10 campuses statewide. We hope that you will enjoy our website while learning about the benefits of estate and gift planning for yourself, your family, and the University of Hawai'i!

    As you visit our site, you will meet some of the donors who have joined us, and hear about their personal journeys and why they have decided to invest in UH. Perhaps you will even recognize some of your friends in the photos we have posted of past events hosted by our team.

    Of course, we would love to hear from you personally, so please feel free to call us at (808) 956-8034 or email us at giftplanning@uhf.hawaii.edu. All communications will be treated confidentially.

    We are committed to helping you achieve your personal and family philanthropic goals, while supporting UH's mission of ensuring access and excellence in higher education for the State of Hawai'i.

Mahalo nui loa for your interest!

  Planning for
         your
Future
    your Family,
     and your Legacy.

As the University of Hawai'i moves forward to meet new challenges and opportunities, your gifts, no matter the size, provide crucial support to the University's 10 campuses. In fact, your gifts can be designated to benefit a particular school, college or program. Alternatively, your gift can be undesignated and used for UH's greatest needs.

"Planned Giving" is an exciting way to fulfill philanthropic goals, because a planned gift provides not only a gift in support of the University of Hawai'i but also multiple financial and tax benefits to a donor and his or her family. The right type of planned gift will depend greatly on a donor's personal situation, needs, and objectives. Accordingly, the UH Foundation and its experienced staff is committed to helping you discover the best gift planning solution that achieves all of your financial and charitable giving goals. For more information on ways to support the University of Hawai'i through planned giving, click here or read our "Steps to Wise Giving" below.
