Realization of our mission and dreams has always been made possible by the loyal support and enduring generosity of our alumni and friends. We invite you to become part of the future of chiropractic by supporting Life Chiropractic College West through the following avenues:

The Capital Campaign Naming Opportunities ($10,000 - $2,000,000)
A New Campus for a New Millennium will forever bear the names of those who celebrate with Life West and enable this new construction for all future generations to see. There are many opportunities available, whether you choose to commemorate a rich and rewarding career, demonstrate your gratitude for the spiritual rewards and hard work of your life, or support the traditional chiropractic values that Life West embraces and represents in the profession. For more information on naming opportunities, please contact the institutional advancement office by calling 800-788-4476, ext.2400.

Insured Endowment Program ($5,000 over a five-year period)
Donors to the Insured Endowment Program pledge $5,000 payable over a five year period. The college invests the funds in life insurance policies, which will yield endowments of anywhere from $20,000 to $200,000, depending on the age of the insured. This program allows the conributor to create large endowments in their own name with a minimum gift.

President's Circle ($1,000 or more)
Donors who pledge annual, ongoing unrestricted gifts of $1,000 or more ($1,500 for couples) are recognized as members of the exclusive President’s Circle. Members are recognized with distinctive navy blazers which symbolize their commitment to the college and receive additional acknowledgements each subsequent year.

Sponsor a Hand Tile ($2500)
Your name and handprints will be engraved onto an elegant porcelain tile. This special limited offer will make a legend out of you or your favorite D.C. Everyone who sponsors a tile will receive a certificate identifying the name and handprints that are to be on the tile, suitable for framing or gift giving. Sponsorship of this program benefits the Capital Campaign.

Tree of Life ($250 or more)
Contributors who specify unrestricted gifts of $250 or more to this giving club will be honored with a personalized brass leaf mounted on Life West's prominent mahogany Tree of Life. You may choose the Tree of Life to honor friends, family members, respected colleagues, or to memorialize those no longer with us.

Buy a Brick ($250)
You can have your name or your company’s name engraved in a brick at Life Chiropractic College West for only $250! If you’re looking for a gift that will not be forgotten quickly, this is it. The antique red bricks will become part of the entrance walkway. Everyone who sponsors a brick will receive a certificate identifying the person or company whose name is to be on the brick, suitable for framing or gift giving. Sponsorship of this program benefits the Capital Campaign.

Grindstaff Memorial Scholarship Fund (any amount)
Doctor's who support the Rod Grindstaff Memorial Scholarship Fund pledge to donate $1 for every new patient who accepts a program of chiropractic care in their office. The funds generated by this program are pooled and will create endowed scholarships for qualified Life West students.
