What is an unrestricted gift?
An unrestricted gift is simply a gift to the Foundation with no restrictions from the donor on how it is to be used. Unrestricted gifts support Joliet Junior College by allowing the Foundation flexibility in determining how best to use the funds.

Why is unrestricted giving important?
Unrestricted giving is a chance for you to do the greatest good. The Foundation directs these funds to where they can have the greatest impact. Unrestricted gifts address current priorities and bring immediate benefits to the College as a whole, taking advantage of unexpected opportunities and meeting necessary challenges.
