As we approach the end of the 2016 calendar year, we want to take a moment to remind our alumni and friends that there is still time to make an annual contribution in support of Michigan Tech—and receive a 2016 tax deduction on your federal tax return (if you itemize.)

You can phone the Michigan Tech Fund at 906-487-2310 or toll-free at 877-386-3688 to make your gift with a credit card. You also have the option of making a credit card gift via Michigan Tech’s secure online gift page by going to www.mtu.edu/giving/. These online gifts can be made up until 11:55 p.m. (EST) on December 31 to ensure a 2016 contribution.

The Michigan Tech Fund offices will be closed on December 26 and 27, but will reopen on Wednesday, December 28 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (EST). In addition, the offices will be staffed from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. (EST) on December 29 (Thursday) and 30 (Friday).
