Campaign for the Colleges was publicly launched on September 21, 2006. Giving to the campaign, however, began on July 1, 2002. These early leadership gifts enabled the Colleges to announce at our kick-off event that we had achieved $90 million toward our campaign goal.

Just as important as the reason why you choose to support the Colleges is the way you make your contribution. There are a variety of opportunities to make a gift that benefits both the Colleges and you and your family.

In addition to your outright support, you may want to defer a gift by leaving a legacy through your estate, or you may want to make Hobart and William Smith a beneficiary of your life insurance or retirement plans. Life income gifts, such as a charitable gift annuity, will pay lifetime income to you and a loved one. We are pleased to have a confidential conversation with you about how you can make a gift and meet your own needs as well.
