Ways to Give

Explore the many opportunities to support the students, faculty and research of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at NC State University.

Supporting the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences

Philanthropy paves the way for groundbreaking innovation that strengthens the agriculture and life sciences industries across North Carolina. Gifts to CALS create pathways for student success, advance faculty research and extend the college’s impact statewide.

Annual Giving

Annual gifts make a tangible impact by funding scholarships, student programs, research and faculty recruitment within CALS. Making an annual gift is crucial in allowing the college to meet its immediate needs and priorities to advance agricultural and life sciences education in North Carolina.

Endowments

Endowments offer donors the opportunity to create lasting legacies within CALS. These gifts often support scholarships and named faculty positions that impact future generations of students, faculty and staff. Endowed gifts are immediately invested and, once fully funded, generate annual income to support the fund’s purpose in perpetuity.

Non-Cash Gifts

In-kind and non-cash gifts, such as research equipment, real estate or securities, enhance the college’s overall capabilities, improve facilities and generate income to support its programs. These gifts provide immediate benefits to CALS and significant tax advantages and savings for donors.

Planned Giving

Planned giving opportunities, including will bequests and estate planning, help shape the college’s impact for years to come. For more information on planned giving, please contact the North Carolina Agricultural Foundation at calsfoundation@ncsu.edu or (919) 515-2000
