Personal Stories

"I earned both my undergraduate and medical degrees at the University. As an alumnus and long-time Medical School faculty member, I feel a strong and compelling loyalty and desire to provide support to the University.When I learned of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, I was struck by the simplicity it provided me to make charitable gifts from my IRA account. I have made a direct outright transfer to the School of Medicine and Dentistry, without the cumbersome need to include the amount of the gift in my gross income. Nothing could have been easier."
