About the Founders Society

The Founders Society honors the generosity of donors who have named Southern Utah University in gift plans, including gifts through estates. T-Birds are learning, growing, and giving back to SUU because of the generosity of those who have come before them. Gifts that qualify for the Founders Society recognition include gifts in wills, trusts, and retirement plans, gifts that provide income, and more. By joining the Founders Society, you join others in celebrating the lasting impact that planned gifts have on SUU’s long-term success. If you have included SUU in your plans but have not let us know, we hope you will share your intentions by completing the form below or contact us today. The Founders Society is a vital group of donors who are invited to special events and the opportunity to meet current T-Birds and hear their stories.

If you have already shared your plans with us and want to ensure that our records are accurate, we would love to hear from you!
