Planned Giving
Thank you for your interest in the University of New Mexico. Our hope is to serve you and your family with helpful information. We have an increasing number of friends at UNM Foundation who now are benefiting from life income gifts, gift annuities and other plans. Thank you for taking the time to explore the benefits of planned giving.
