Director of Development - Gift Planning
Boise State University

Bart Hendricks has been in development with Boise State University since 2014. He began as a Development Director in Athletics prior to moving to the Planned Giving office in 2019 where he is now the Director of Development for Gift Planning. 

Since joining the Planned Giving team, Bart has secured over $7M in planned gifts to the university. With a financial background prior to joining Boise State, Bart held his securities and insurance licenses, bringing a knowledge and understanding of various financial products and assets, their uses and the benefits of each within an individual's estate. 

Bart is also a proud graduate of Boise State. Graduating in 2001, he has a stake in seeing the university thrive while helping donors provide the most impact through asset giving, ensuring the same positive experiences he had as a Bronco.

While not on campus, he is on adventures with his wife and son, renovating, repairing or neglecting items around their house, or crashing on his mountain bike.

Go Broncos!
