L&S Gift Management: UW Foundation Policy Overview

Below is an overview of the policies of accepting and processing gift funds, including how to request access access to the UW Foundation's website. 

The University of Wisconsin Foundation (UWF) is the official fundraising and gift-receiving organization for the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and the university's development and financial partner. Each year, the UW Foundation transfers gift and investment income to UW-Madison to support campus priorities like scholarships, building projects, research efforts, and initiatives in specific schools, colleges, and programs.

The University of Wisconsin Foundation is a separate organization from University of Wisconsin-Madison so it is important to understand the policies and procedures that allow us to work together to support the mission of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We are all responsible for ensuring that the correct policies are followed for the acceptance and administrative stewardship of gifts made directly to the University, as well as gifts made to the Wisconsin Foundation and Alumni Association (WFAA) in support of the University.
