The Mortar & Pestle Society was established to help The University of Toledo College of Pharmacy meet its educational mission and its role in the profession and the community at large. In these times of dwindling public resources, the annual gifts of the Mortar & Pestle Society members are critical to college programs and continued excellence. Member gifts provide essential funds for scholarships, faculty research support, and programs. Members are regularly informed about important developments at the College and may also assist the College with their counsel.
Each member of the Mortar & Pestle Society agrees to a contribution of $10,000 payable to the College of Pharmacy Annual Fund over 10 years or less. UT employees can make gifts of $1,000 per year payable over a maximum of ten years, and non-employees of UT can make their gifts of $2,000 per year over five years to the College of Pharmacy.
Although cash contributions constitute the usual gift, gifts of appreciable securities, stocks, bonds, or real estate are encouraged and may offer certain tax advantages to donors. Most gifts will be unrestricted, allowing the College to respond quickly to changing needs; however, members may also designate their contributions for specific programs if they so desire. One hundred percent of a member's gift will be used for the sole benefit of the College of Pharmacy and will constitute a charitable contribution and be tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

Planned or deferred gifts allow donors to make a significant gift that will benefit UT in the future, typically at the donor’s or beneficiary’s death. The UT Foundation, which processes the gifts, welcomes the opportunity to work with donors and their legal and financial advisers to establish planned gift arrangements.
In many cases, planned gifts offer donors substantial tax advantages and financial benefits, such as lowered estate tax liability or increased spendable income. Donors should consult with their own advisers as to the specific tax consequences.
For more information on Planned Giving see the UT Foundation's Planned Giving site or contact Eric Slough, the College of Pharmacy's development officer.
