Ways to Give

Automatic Gifting:

Make a monthly pledge using your credit card. Instead of an annual or one-time gift, spread your donation out by making monthly installments.

Corporate Giving:

Organizations can encourage philanthropy from their employees by matching their contributions in part or whole. Not only is it tax deductible, but it is an amazing opportunity in which businesses can make a difference.

Honor and Memorial Gifts:

Honor and memorial gifts are an excellent way to recognize or commemorate someone special.

Legacy Planned Giving:

Your legacy gift to Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences helps ensure exceptional medical education for students and ultimately impacts the number of healthcare providers who can serve our communities in the Pacific Northwest. Some of the ways you can leave a legacy include:

  • A bequest of provision in your will.
  • Life insurance: A gift of life insurance policy can provide an important gift for the future by naming PNWU as the beneficiary.
  • Charitable remainder trust: Use this estate-planning vehicle to increase your retirement income and eventually make a gift to PNWU.
  • Gifts from your IRA or other retirement account: Ensure your money goes to a charity you support through PNWU as the beneficiary on your qualified plan.
  • Charitable lead trust: By temporarily ‘loaning’ some income-producing assets to PNWU for a period of time, you can have an impact today and also save money on taxes.

Your Gift Makes a Difference

Thank you for supporting the students of Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences. What began as a dream in 2004 is now a bricks and mortar building with hundreds of medical students receiving high-quality training by nationally-recognized faculty. It is made possible by the contributions of dedicated and generous donors.

Beyond raising the roof on a new building or providing funds for a new piece of equipment, donors to PNWU make a tangible difference to healthcare throughout the communities of the Pacific Northwest.

As students become trained professionals, the needs of the university continue to grow and evolve. We invite you to join us on this incredible journey.
