College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences: How to Make a Gift

Many alumni remember how difficult it was to manage the expense of higher education, and want to find a way to help today's students achieve their dreams.

researcher The PAMS Foundation provides many ways to support students, faculty and programs of the College. Whether you want to contribute to an existing scholarship, support a departmental enhancement fund, make a memorial gift, or consider more significant support, our staff is available to help you explore the options.

To support existing funds

To contribute to an existing scholarship, fellowship or other fund, simply mail a check to the NC State Physical & Mathematical Sciences Foundation, Campus Box 8201, Raleigh, NC, 27695. Make checks payable to PAMS Foundation and write the name of the fund on the "notes" or "for" line. And if your employer provides matches for charitable donations, please send a completed matching gift form with your contribution.

If you would like to make a gift by credit card, or of other assets, please contact us at 919-515-3462.

Many of our funds have specific designated uses. If you would like information on our various funds to help you decide the best fit for your support, please call us at 919-515-3462.

For examples of types of gifts, see outright gifts and deferred gifts.

To explore your options

If you have questions about gift planning, we can help you identify tax benefits, choose between permanent endowment vs. one-time support, and explore estate planning or life-income options.

There are many ways to match your interests with specific College needs, and several possibilities for making your vision a reality. Whether using cash, appreciated assets, real estate or a bequest, we can help you find the best way to make the most of your gift.
