Is UB in your will?
On UB Giving Day, it’s our goal to identify supporters who have included a gift to UB in their will, but have not yet let us know. If this applies to you, contact Wendy Irving, Associate Vice President for Planned Giving at (877) 825-3422 or dev-pg@buffalo.edu. Together we can learn about your giving intent, and help you to create a lasting legacy at UB.

To spur the growth of SUNY university centers, the State of New York has established a fund that will match one dollar for every two dollars contributed by donors to new or existing endowed funds at UB. The University at Buffalo is eligible to earn up to $200 million in state funds, meaning donors have a limited time opportunity to see their contributions—and impact—grow rapidly.
