New Horizons Society

Join other supporters in securing our future.

Including UNM in an estate plan supports the university’s mission, empowers generations of students and faculty to thrive, and creates a meaningful legacy.

To recognize and celebrate donors who choose to include UNM in their estate plans, the UNM Foundation created the New Horizons Society (NHS) — a community of alumni, faculty, staff, parents, and friends who are united by a shared commitment to the university’s future.

Estate gifts come in many forms and sizes, and each gift matters. A few examples include:

  • A provision in your will or trust
  • A beneficiary designation on a bank account, retirement plan, or life insurance policy
  • A charitable gift annuity or charitable remainder trust that provides lifetime income

Join the New Horizons Society

If you’ve named the UNM Foundation in your estate plans, we’d love to welcome you into the New Horizons Society. Let us celebrate your vision and learn about the impact you hope to make so we can help ensure your legacy lives on.

Benefits of membership include:

  • A biennial luncheon that honors NHS members and highlights the transformative power of planned giving
  • Access to other special events and educational seminars
  • A subscription to our planned giving newsletter with helpful tips on estate and financial planning topics

If you are considering making a planned gift, please contact us if we can be of assistance or visit the Tools & Resources page. You might also be interested in reading about how other supporters made planned gifts that provided benefits for us and for them.
