174 Statler Hall
Ithaca, NY 14853
Please specify designation in the memo area
Credit Card
To charge your gift we will need the name of your credit card (American Express, Discover, Mastercard and Visa accepted), the account number, and the expiration date. Please contact the Development Office at (607) 255-9542 or give online.
Securities
Increasing numbers of alumni, parents, and friends are making gifts to the Hotel School using appreciated securities - including publicly traded and privately held stock and mutual funds. The attraction of this method of giving is that the donor is entitled to take a charitable deduction for the full current value of appreciated securities held longer than one year, and is able to avoid paying the capital-gains tax that would be due if the donor sold the securities.
For information on transferring securities, please contact the Development Office at (607) 255-9542.
Matching gifts
Many employers recognize the importance of philanthropy by agreeing to match or multiply donations made by active and retired employees, and in some cases employees' spouses and partners as well. Your gift to the Hotel School could double or triple in value. Please contact your personnel or human resources office for matching-gift forms.
Gift Planning
Many alumni and friends have designated the School of Hotel Administration in their estate plans, but did you know that the University offers a full range of professional gift planning services and vehicles that can help to meet individual needs, secure your family’s future, and strengthen the Hotel School – all at the same time?
For additional information, please contact Meg Hardie Keilbach '88, Director of Development, at 607-255-9542 or the Office of Trusts, Estates, and Gift Planning at (800) 481-1865.
