There are many ways to give to UCDS.
You may specify that your gift be targeted for a specific program or purpose, or you may leave your gift unrestricted - to be used where it's needed most.
How to Make a Gift
Gifts can be made in a variety of forms including outright gifts of cash, securities, and real estate or through planned giving options such as bequests and life income plans. Your gift to UCDS is tax-deductible.
Gifts of Cash and Securities
- Gifts of Cash:
A cash gift entitles the donor to an income tax charitable deduction in the year in which the gift was made.
- Online Donations:
Online donations are welcome. Click here for the UCDS Forever Endowment Campaign Donation Page. Click here for the UCDS Annual Fund Donation Page.
- Gifts of Securities:
In most cases, an outright gift of appreciated securities entitles the donor to an income tax charitable deduction for the fair market value of the securities and, in the case of securities which have been held for more than a year, the avoidance of the capital gains tax.

- Planned Giving:
A planned gift incorporates philanthropy with estate and financial planning to benefit both you and UCDS. Planned gifts can provide many financial and non-financial benefits to you, including fulfillment of philanthropic goals, tax savings, asset management, income, security, and gifts to family. Here are some of the many gift planning options.
