Make a Difference Today
Your support helps Leech Lake Tribal College provide students with a unique educational experience grounded in Anishinaabe values, culture, and traditions while preparing them for success in their careers, communities, and future endeavors.
Every gift—regardless of size—helps create opportunities for students through scholarships, academic programs, cultural learning experiences, student support services, and campus improvements. Contributions from alumni, tribal nations, community members, businesses, foundations, and friends of the college help ensure that current and future generations have access to quality higher education close to home.
As a Tribal College, LLTC continues to work diligently to meet the growing educational needs of our students and communities. Private donations, sponsorships, grants, and community partnerships play a vital role in helping us advance our mission and expand opportunities for student success.
When you invest in Leech Lake Tribal College, you are investing in future leaders, educators, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs, language speakers, cultural knowledge keepers, and community builders.

Invest in Us
Leech Lake Tribal College has made a big difference in so many lives, helping students achieve their true potential and reach a level of achievement they may not have thought possible. There are many ways to make a gift to Leech Lake Tribal College. Each one offers distinct benefits to you and to LLTC, both today and for years to come. We appreciate your continued support of our students!
Types of Gifts
The simplest and fastest way to give to Leech Lake Tribal College to use your credit or debit card to make a gift on LLTC’s Donation Link. Your gift is transferred immediately to LLTC and is tax deductible.
You may also mail gifts to: LLTC, Attn: Advancement, 6945 Little Wolf Road NW, Cass Lake, MN 56633
Gifts may be made as a pledge to be paid over a specified period. Please contact the Advancement Office at ryan.white@lltc.edu to work out the details of your pledge.
Gifts of securities, including stocks and bonds, to Leech Lake Tribal College may be made, and when stock is transferred directly to Leech Lake Tribal College, you do not have to pay capital gains tax – a potentially major tax benefit to you! You also may want to explore other gifts such as real estate, personal property, and life insurance. All are tax-deductible, and all can provide significant benefit to LLTC and its students.
A planned, or deferred, gift — such as a bequest made through your will or a gift of life insurance — enables you to make a larger gift to LLTC than you may have thought possible, while providing financial security for you and your family. Planned gifts can be as simple as an outright bequest of a certain percentage of your estate value, or a more complex giving vehicle such as a lead or remainder trust. We’ll be happy to work with you and your legal or financial counsel to develop a plan that will benefit you and LLTC.
Endowments are essential to developing and maintaining quality programs at Leech Lake Tribal College. You can endow a scholarship, a professorship or department chair, or many other options. The minimum amount for an endowed gift is $20,000, which can be transferred all at once or over a period of time. For more information on creating an endowment, please contact the LLTC Advancement Office.
You may make a gift to Leech Lake Tribal College in honor or in memory of an individual or to mark a special occasion or event. For more information, contact the Advancement Office at ryan.white@lltc.edu.
