As you can see by the list, there have been wide and varied kinds of gifts to the University through the LSSU Foundation.
When contributing “something” to the University, “it” must be able to be used or sold to further the mission of LSSU. When the value of a gift-in-kind donation is $500 or more for the year, the original costs of the items, plus information about how and when they were acquired also must be documented on IRS form 8283.
Please review the list of schools and departments to see if your donation might be appropriate to be used to advance our education program in some way.
Please contact the appropriate dean, faculty or program director when considering donating equipment, materials or product, or artifact that can be used in a University program or museum.
Businesses, corporations and manufacturers are encouraged to contact the appropriate dean of the college or school to which you wish to direct your equipment gift.
If you wish to receive a charitable tax credit for your in-kind gift, it is imperative that you contact the LSSU Foundation to be involved in the gift process. If the Foundation is not involved, you may not get the proper credit for your gift. (Sometimes the faculty forget about this!)
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires the donor to obtain a certified appraisal for any in-kind gift whose fair market value is $5,000 or more. Contact the LSSU Foundation for more information.
The Lake Superior State University Foundation was founded in 1983 and makes its home at the Lukenda Alumni House, one of the original Fort Brady Row Houses at the eastern end of campus. The Foundation oversees a vast amount of scholarship activities, events and other philanthropic activities to help educate the public on various ways to give to Lake Superior State University.
