Naming Opportunities
Naming opportunities at Southern University at New Orleans exist across all academic disciplines, in virtually every building and among student programs. From contributing to a building's renovation or construction to refinishing the historic Founders home or buying a brick, donors at every level have the opportunity to support the University while honoring or memorializing themselves, mentors or loved ones.
Matching Gifts
Corporate Matching Gifts - If you work for (and in some cases if you are retired from, married to an employee of, widowed from someone who was employed with, or serve on the board of) a company which matches gifts to colleges and universities, your gift may be matched 1 to 1, 2 to 1, or even 3 to 1 by that company.
If you have one of the above relationships with a company, you can find out if the company will match your gift to Southern University at New Orleans by simply contacting the company's Personnel or Benefits Office. (Or you may contact the Southern University at New Orleans Office of Advancement and we can find out for you.) If your company has a matching gift program, they will provide you with a form, which you would send with your gift. We will process all necessary paperwork/forms and when your company's matching gift is received, we will credit and recognize both you and your company for the matching gift.
Contribute by Payroll Deduction
Southern University at New Orleans employees are eligible to make charitable contributions via payroll deduction. You may choose to have any amount of $10.00 or more deducted from your payroll bi-weekly, or you may wish to have the Office of University Advancement calculate the appropriate amount to fulfill a pledge. At any time, a payroll deduction can be changed or stopped by contacting the Office of Advancement. Payroll deductions are an easy way to support Grambling and its numerous academic programs.
