Combining immediate and future gifts for maximum impact

A blended gift combines gifts during your lifetime with a future gift in your estate plan.

By pairing current gifts—such as those from a donor-advised fund or an IRA—with long-term legacy gifts like wills or trusts, you can provide immediate support for The University of Texas at San Antonio students while securing a permanent endowment for the future.

When you recommend a grant from your donor-advised fund, or make an IRA qualified charitable distribution to make a gift, you see an immediate impact with your giving.

Then add to your fund with a gift through your will, trust, or beneficiary designation to expand and extend the reach of your gift. This blended gift style benefits UT San Antonio students now, while endowing a vision for the future.
