For over 120 years, The College of Idaho has benefited from the unflagging generosity of our alumni, students, parents and friends. Every gift to the College makes a difference and inspires others to give.
Our Donors
The Boone Heritage Society was established to honor those caring and visionary individuals who have established planned gifts with the College of Idaho or have named The College as a beneficiary of their estate plans through a bequest, trust, gift annuity, pooled income fund, life insurance policy or retirement-account designation.
