Why should I give to The University of New Orleans Foundation instead of giving directly to UNO?
Giving to The University of New Orleans Foundation, an independent, non-state entity, ensures that donors’ gifts will be used for their designated purposes and will not be co-mingled with state funds. Usually, when donors give gifts directly to UNO, the University forwards the funds to the Foundation to manage the donation as the UNO Foundation is the official organization for managing private resources for UNO’s benefit.
