Ways to Give

Your support is needed to achieve the goals of this campaign. You can make a difference. Your gift can be structured in several ways:

​

CASH

Cash gifts can be made through credit/debit card transactions, or personal checks, cashier’s checks, or money orders made payable to San Joaquin Memorial High School/Campaign. To donate online, go to sjmhs.org/campaign.

 

PLEDGES

You may want to make a pledge now and spread payments over time, preferably over three years but up to five years. As illustrated in the accompanying chart, by breaking down a multi-year commitment into different payment schedules, you might see how you can manage a personally significant gift to the campaign.

 

APPRECIATED STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS

An alternative to cash is a gift of appreciated securities. Stocks, bonds, and mutual funds

owned for more than one year and that have increased in value are popular assets used for

charitable giving. In most cases, the full fair market value of gifts of appreciated assets is

deductible, providing immediate tax benefits to you. And don’t forget about your IRA. Please

consult your financial professional for advice on maximizing your campaign gift plans. A

brokerage account transfer form is available from the Advancement Office or online at sjmhs.org/giving

 

MATCHING GIFT PROGRAMS

Many corporations and foundations offer matching gift programs. Such programs may

allow donors to double or even triple the amount of their contribution. Matching gift forms are

available from company personnel or human resource offices.
