Gift Annuity

"We're planning for the long run," said UND Professor Doug Munski of his and Laura's decision to establish gift annuities through the UND Foundation.

Gift Annuities are as simple as purchasing a savings certificate at a financial institution. You'll find the arrangement provides comparatively high yields without speculative or risky investments.

"A little here, a little there and the long term payoff benefits the giver and the institution in a much higher percentage," he says. To establish a gift annuity, you choose the assets, such as cash or stocks, to fund a gift annuity which in turn provides you a guaranteed fixed income for life. You decide whether you'd like the arrangement to be available for one or two persons.

Gift annuities help provide a bright future for students at the University of North Dakota by providing funds for scholarships, outstanding professors, resources and facilities.

"These things add to the overall atmosphere of campus and quality of life for the entire community. That's why Grand Forks continues to be an attractive home - the University of North Dakota."
