Three questions to guide your approach
Your support makes possible everything Georgetown is and aspires to be—that’s why so many of our alumni, parents, and friends give. But meaningful philanthropy isn’t just about why. It’s also about when, what, and how.
When would you like to give?
Learn how you can give now, spread it out, or plan for the future.
What could you give?
Explore the possibilities—from cash to stocks, IRAs, and everything in between.
How could a gift fulfill your goals?
Current use, endowed, or otherwise—design your philanthropy for meaningful impact.
When would you like to give?
Some philanthropists want to make a singular impact; others punctuate their lives with gifts of various types and sizes. Consider when you’ll want to flex your philanthropic muscle.
GIVE NOW
Outright giving is essential to sustaining Georgetown’s momentum. Whether you’re writing a check, donating stock, or sharing a less-traditional asset, your gift will support the schools and programs that educate women and men to be reflective lifelong learners, to participate actively and responsibly in civic life, and to live generously in service to others.
SPREAD IT OUT
A multi-year pledge spread across up to five years can help you facilitate ongoing giving at a comfortable level with cumulative benefit and impact.
PLAN FOR THE FUTURE
Resourceful donors often find that the flexibility of a planned gift enables them to make a bigger gift than they thought affordable while achieving their personal and philanthropic goals. The most forward-thinking philanthropists are starting young-and finding that the process is painless.
