Of course. Clearly note on the gift form how much you want to give to each area, and we’ll take it from there.
How much should I give?
Participation is the key to our success. What is important is that you choose to give, not necessarily the amount. When everyone gives a little bit, we all gain a lot, and we know not everyone can give a lot, but everyone can give something. No matter how much you contribute, you will get a recyclable grocery bag, a coupon for a yogurt parfait, and a coupon for the Northern Arizona University bookstore: it’s our way of saying "thanks."
Is my gift tax deductible?
Yes, your gift is fully tax deductible as provided by law. Once we receive your gift, you will receive a receipt verifying that your gift has been deposited into the account you have specified.
Can I make a gift jointly with my spouse?
Yes. Indicate on the gift form that your gift is made jointly.
Can I make an anonymous gift?
Yes. Simply note your preference on the online or print gift form.
