Planned gifts provide the resources that create extraordinary opportunities and shape our future. Planned gifts can support undergraduate and graduate fellowships, research, infrastructure, outreach to vulnerable populations, and other GGSC priorities.

A planned gift may enable you to make a more significant gift than you thought possible while at the same time allowing you to achieve your financial, philanthropic, and estate planning goals. To that end, there are a myriad of easy giving options from which you can choose—from naming us as a beneficiary in your will to a more complex trust arrangement.

You can learn more about making a planned gift to the Greater Good Science Center by visiting planyourlegacy.berkeley.edu or by contacting Betsy Cardis, at 510-859-8858 or bcardis@berkeley.edu.

Bank wires and payments via electronic funds transfer may be arranged through your financial institution and the UC Berkeley Foundation. For more information, please contact Betsy Cardis, at 510-859-8858 or bcardis@berkeley.edu. Please be sure to indicate the Greater Good Science Center as the recipient of your gift, and let Betsy know if you are making this type of donation so that we can watch for its arrival. Thank you!

A memorial gift can help perpetuate the values and ideals that define a loved one’s life. Honorary gifts commemorate a significant event or an exceptional person who is still living. Families of those so honored will be notified of your gift if you provide contact information. The amount of your gift, however, remains private. 

If you'd like to make a donation to celebrate someone special, please contact Betsy Cardis at (510) 859-8858 or bcardis@berkeley.edu to discuss how best to honor your intentions.

Endowments may be named, directed to a specific purpose, and comprised of various types of assets. Please contact Betsy Cardis at (510) 859-8858 or bcardis@berkeley.edu to discuss your donation.
