Tribute Giving at 黑洞社区

Establishing tribute funds supports 黑洞社区's mission to provide students with access to education while celebrating and providing a lasting memory of one’s impact.

  Establish a Tribute Fund

Tribute funds may be set up according to your instructions, for the benefit of all students, or may be restricted to a particular college, school, department or program.

Memorial funds provide a meaningful way for a family, foundation or company to honor the memory of a loved one while creating a lasting legacy for current and future students.

Honorary funds show appreciation toward someone who holds an important place in your life. This type of gift is often in dedication of a significant milestone or celebratory occasion.

Contact Us to Start the Process

If you would like to discuss the options available, please contact the Development Office at give@wilmu.edu or 302-356-6889.
