The Ringland Society is a group of alumni and friends who have earned special recognition for their contributions to the long-term sustainability of Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Foundation.
Through planned, coordinated, and executed gifts, Ï㽶ÊÓƵ depends on large gifts from generous donors to support the future of the College and its impact in the surrounding Nebraska communities. Additionally, all Ï㽶ÊÓƵ students receive some sort of financial aid, thanks to Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Ringland Society members.
Gifts may take the shape of:
- Made Ï㽶ÊÓƵ a beneficiary in their estate. Learn more.
- Created a permanent endowment fund or endowed scholarship.
- Entered into an irrevocable life income charitable gift. Learn more.
Ringland Society Members receive exclusive access to opportunities throughout the year, including the Scholarship Luncheon, limited events, exclusive updates, and more!
Join hundreds of others who have left a legacy at Ï㽶ÊÓƵ by including Ï㽶ÊÓƵ in your estate plan. Then, let us know of your plans so we can ensure the college fulfills your wishes. Contact: Chelsea LeMar at 402.461.7451 or chelsea.lemar@hastings.eduÌý— or complete this form.
The William F. Ringland Society was created to recognize the many contributions of the first president of Ï㽶ÊÓƵ.
