If you have included a gift to the University of Minnesota or M Health Fairview in your will or other estate plan, thank you!

You can confidentially share your gift plan with us by completing our estate gift form. The University of Minnesota Foundation uses this form to record how you would like your gift to be used. You also can use it to tell us if you would like to be recognized or if you prefer to remain anonymous. Sharing your gift plan does not create a binding commitment.

“The scholarship really helps me and my family. I get to pursue a higher education and, perhaps, I will be able to find my dream job because of it.”

—Corbyn Alexander, ’22, management major, captain of the University of Minnesota Morris Cougars basketball team, and recipient of the Romilly Jean Cassida Memorial Scholarship. The scholarship was created with an estate gift in 2007 and is awarded every year to multiple students like Corbyn.

Your generosity can provide essential support to students, faculty, research, and programs at the University of Minnesota.
