Become a member of the Laker Legacy Society with a planned gift to positively impact the future of the College and our students.
You can positively impact future generations through a simple act--add a bequest or gift to the Mid Foundation in your will or retirement plan.
As a Laker Legacy Society member, you demonstrate a commitment to education and the belief that developing knowledge and ability can transform lives.
Donations and/or earmarking your most highly-taxable assets can benefit your loved ones financially.

Gifts made to endowed funds are invested and managed by the Foundation's Investment Committee. They are guided by professional investment managers and work within the bounds of the Investment and Distribution Policy.
Funds can be set up to provide for a number of vital needs including scholarships, technology, capital improvements, cultural offerings, and more. They can also be named for individuals, companies, or in memory or honor of a loved one.
To provide a meaningful level of investment income, the minimum funding level for an endowment is $10,000, which must be reached within three years of the date the fund is established.
Establishing a scholarship is an easy and rewarding process. While there are exceptions, you can establish a named scholarship if you intend to provide at least $1,000 for your scholarship over each of the next three years. Otherwise, you can also donate to an existing scholarship that matches your interests.
The Mid Michigan College Foundation funds life-changing programs, scholarships, and college initiatives that helps students expand their horizons and achieve their goals.
Contributions to the Foundation benefit the entire community and its economy. Community colleges change lives by making higher education available to everyone.
Charitable giving is not only a way to share what we have, but to become who we are.
Donations to the Mid Foundation may qualify you for significant federal and state tax savings.
