The IEEE Life Members Committee manages the Life Members Fund (LMF) which is administered by the IEEE Foundation.

The Life Members Funds supports numerous programs in various areas of interest that enhance the activities of Life members, potential engineers, engineering students and professionals world wide.  The continuing growth of the Life Members Fund will help support new and exciting opportunities for young engineers with engineering education and workforce development, applying technology for humanitarian causes and preserving the history of technology.

The LMF funds many projects and activities of importance to the IEEE, Students and Life Members (Including future Life Members).

There are currently 34,000+ IEEE members identified in the grades of Life Member, Senior Life Member and Fellow Life Member.

There are multiple ways to assist in the activities of the Life Members Committee and the Life Member Fund (LMF).

Each year during renewal of your membership, which all Life Members must do along with all other IEEE Members, you have the opportunity to make a donation to the LMF.

The opportunities for charitable gifts to IEEE are many and varied.  You may find the following gift ideas helpful during your planning process:

  • Giving through your membership renewal

  • Gifts of cash

  • Gifts of securities

  • Commemorative gifts

  • Legacy gifts

 

Additionally here are some other categories for donating to the LMF (descriptions listed at www.ieeefoundation.org):

IEEE Goldsmith Legacy League – Forever Generous You are invited to join an elite group – IEEE Goldsmith Legacy League – the IEEE Foundation’s planned giving donor recognition group. Planned gifts typically come from assets rather than income. Many League members have included a bequest in their will or trust document.

The IEEE Heritage Circle is the cumulative giving donor recognition program of the IEEE Foundation. The IEEE Heritage Circle acknowledges the philanthropic spirit of those who have “given back” to IEEE throughout their career and lifetime.  IEEE Heritage Circle’s five cumulative giving levels are named in honor of great science and technology innovators, who each helped shape the world in which we live.
