As a registered independent 501(c)3 organization, we offer several convenient ways to support the CCNY community via a 100% tax deductible gift to the Alumni Association:
Cash gifts are one of the most straightforward ways to support the Alumni Association. Use the secure form on this page to donate today! Or mail a check to Alumni Association of CCNY, PO Box 177, New York, NY 10027. Your cash donations to our general fund have an immediate impact on our programs, scholarships, and campus initiatives. You can also make a donation in honor of someone; click here to learn more about Memorial & Tribute Gifts
Directed donations will go to a specific program or initiative and are a way for you to direct funds to the area of your choice. For more information on directed donations click one of the following categories: Scholarship & Stipends | Custom Programming || Affiliate Programming | Gift-A-Book
Many companies offer matching gift programs that can double or even triple your charitable contribution. We encourage you to visit ccnyalumni.org/doublethedonation to check if your employer, or any company you are associated with, participates in a matching gift program, or you can contact your HR department for more information. This is an easy way to maximize the impact of your donation without any additional cost to you.
Donating appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds allows you to make a larger gift while potentially avoiding capital gains taxes. By transferring these assets directly to Alumni Association, you can reduce your tax burden while supporting our mission. Contact David Covington, Executive Director, dcovington@ccnyalumni.org, 212-234-3000 if you would like to consider a stock donation.
If you have a donor-advised fund, you can recommend a grant to the Alumni Association of the City College of New York (EIN: 13-0452368). DAF contributions are an easy way to manage your charitable giving and ensure that your support benefits CCNY's future generations.
If you are 70½ or older and have an IRA, you can make a gift directly to the Alumni Association of the City College of New York (EIN: 13-0452368) through a Qualified Charitable Distribution. This option allows you to donate up to $100,000 annually from your IRA without incurring income taxes on the distribution.
By including the Alumni Association of the City College of New York (EIN: 13-0452368) in your estate planning, you can leave a lasting legacy. Planned gifts, such as bequests or charitable gift annuities, ensure that your support for the Alumni Association and the CCNY community will continue well into the future.
