A major gift is a gift that is personalized with your specific interests in mind. We look forward to personally visiting with you to explain what constitutes a major gift, explain current funding initiatives and offer guidance on ways to fund a project of interest. 

Once an initiative is selected, a detailed proposal will be created outlining the mutual agreement between USGI/Tan Tao University and you. That proposal will detail the impact your gift will make to the Univeristy. 

After the gift has been established, you will receive personal, on-going interaction from our development officer.  We will share current information about the school, provide updates on the progress of the initiative you’ve funded.  Our goal is a dynamic partnership that is mutually beneficial for years to come.

We encourage you to make an annual gift to The USGI, providing immediately expendable support, making a difference in the lives of deserving hardworking students who strive to make a difference in our collective future.

The next page will let you designate how and where you would like your donation to be used.
