Ways to Give
Gifts of Cash
A gift of cash is available immediately for use by the University and, in most cases, is fully deductible for donors who itemize their federal income taxes. (If a cash gift totals more than 50% of adjusted gross income, the balance may be carried forward for up to five additional tax years.) Your check should be made payable to CSUDH.
Credit Card Gifts
A quick and easy way to make a gift to the Annual Fund is with a credit card. CSUDH accepts VISA and MasterCard. A credit card gift often provides flexibility for donors who wish to make larger gifts by spreading payments out over several months or the entire year. You can now submit a gift online through our secure gift form or you can contact our office at 310-243-3955.
Gifts of Securities
Gifts of appreciated securities may be deducted at full market value on the date of transfer to CSUDH. (Securities that have been held for one year or more are deductible up to 30% of your adjusted gross income; the balance may be carried forward within the same limitation for up to five additional years.) When engaging in stock transfers, please contact Greg Saks at 310-243-2182. Learn more about making a gift of securities.
