Double (or triple) your gift!
Many employers will match the charitable gifts of their employees, often doubling or even tripling the value of your contribution to Spalding. Please contact your employer to determine whether your company matches gifts, and to obtain the form or instructions necessary to secure the corporate match. Make your philanthropic dollar go further with a matching gift!
Spalding University is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization as defined by the IRS.
Your gift is tax-deductible to the extent of the law.
Ways to Give:
Your gift to Spalding University is greatly appreciated! Gifts of any size help to provide the margin of excellence that makes a Spalding education an extraordinary opportunity for students.
There are many ways to make a gift to Spalding University: we would be happy to discuss with you the method that best fits your philanthropic desires and your financial situation.
Gifts of Cash – cash gifts, whether made with currency, check, or by charge card, make an immediate impact on Spalding University. Checks should be made payable to Spalding University.
Gifts of stock – donating stocks or other securities is another way to support the important work of Spalding University, without impacting your cash reserves. Donations of stocks or securities that have been held long-term (currently defined by the IRS as one year or more) can result in a significant tax break for the donors – appreciated stocks that are donated after being held for a year or more avoid capital gains tax, and may qualify for a deduction for the full value of the gift. Gifts of stock may be transferred electronically, providing additional convenience for you. You or your investment advisor may contact us for instructions at 502-585-9911, extension 2505.
Gifts of Real Estate or Personal Property – gifts of tangible assets may be donated to Spalding University, relieving the donor of property that no longer fits the needs of their lifestyle. Your donation of property, homes, antiques, art, or other real assets may offer a tax benefit for you, while offering a substantial opportunity to support Spalding. Some restrictions do apply to these types of gifts, so we ask that you contact us at 502-585-9911, extension 2505, or at brafferty@spalding.edu before making your donation, in order to assure that your generosity may accomplish what you envision.
Planned or Deferred Gifts – the ultimate expression of belief in an institution and its mission is a gift that will live beyond the donor’s need for his or her assets. There are various methods such as bequests, trusts, annuities, and insurance policies that can protect your estate and minimize estate taxes, provide lifetime income for you or your heirs, and reduce your current tax burden, all while benefiting Spalding University. We would be happy to talk to you and your investment advisor or estate planner to explore options that will allow you to make the gift of a lifetime to support Spalding.
