Give the Gift of Education
The Cochise College Foundation provides a variety of ways for you to share the gift of education with deserving students.
The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization and, therefore, any gifts to the Foundation are tax-deductible according to applicable state and federal laws. The Foundation staff is ready to provide assistance as you have questions or anticipate potential gifts.
Please contact the Cochise College Foundation with any questions you may have. We appreciate your dedication to our students and support of higher education!
Cash and Pledges
Gifts may be made by cash, check or credit card. Cash pledges should be made in writing or by means of a pledge form available from the Cochise College Foundation. We will be happy to tailor any pledge to meet the donor's wishes and provide follow-up reminders to assist in making pledge payments as necessary.
Matching Gifts
If your employer or your spouse’s employer has a program that matches part or all of a qualifying donation, such a program can double or even triple your gift amount. Check with your human resource department to see if such a matching gift program exists.
Real Estate
You may give private, commercial, or agricultural property to the Foundation. If you are considering such a gift, please contact the Foundation as early as possible so that we may jointly decide the best use of the property.
Personal Property
Works of art, valuable books, and/or furnishings are considered gifts of personal property. An appraisal will be required in specific situations for non-cash contributions. Before considering a donation of personal property, contact the Foundation so that together we may determine the best way to arrange such a gift.
Planned Gifts
Planned gifts are commitments that are arranged today but generally come to the Foundation after your lifetime, such as designating a gift in your will, or designating the Foundation as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy. Your planned gift helps ensure Cochise College's ability to deliver educational services and scholarships to our community far into the future while matching your overall financial planning goals.
Establish A Scholarship Fund
Donors may establish a specially named and endowed scholarship fund as a tribute to an individual, a group, or in connection with a particular area of study at Cochise College. Creating an endowed scholarship fund allows you to make a financial commitment to the College and to the students of our community with an investment that will continue to give far into the future. Presently, the minimum amount for establishing an endowed fund is $5,000.
Memorial/Tribute Gifts
The Cochise College Foundation’s gift of education contribution program allows you to make a gift in honor or in memory of someone special. Your gift to the Foundation makes for a unique personal gift from you for the holidays, for a birthday, anniversary, wedding, graduation, or for Mother's or Father's Day. The Foundation acknowledges all gifts in writing and will send a special occasion card to your honoree or designated party.
