Large gifts are absolutely essential to the success of Wittenberg Athletics but so are modest ones. Donations of all sizes are vital and gratefully accepted. Some donors find they can achieve their charitable goals through the University’s many planned giving avenues, such as life insurance, property, real estate and securities, that don't require a large cash gift. Donors may also pledge their gifts over time. You may also be able to double your gift by taking advantage of your employer's matching gift program.
Gifts in excess of goods or services received are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. You are encouraged to consult your tax adviser and the IRS Web site.
Many companies offer employees a matching-gift benefit that doubles or triples their donations to higher education. Companies have various methods by which you can submit your matching-gift request: online forms, automated phone systems or paper forms that you submit to The Wittenberg Fund office. Please visit your human resources office to learn more about matching-gift opportunities and policies or contact The Wittenberg Fund for more information about matching gift companies and see if your gift qualifies.
The staff of The Wittenberg Fund is happy to assist you in any way possible. In addition, our advancement officers work closely with donors to help them achieve their philanthropic goals. For more information about giving opportunities, call The Wittenberg Fund office at (937) 327-6365.
