Ways to make your gift...

          By making a gift to the College at Oneonta, you are helping to continue the tradition of giving that the College is especially proud of. The College follows a fiscal year of July 1 - June 30, so be sure to make your gift every fiscal year to be a part of our giving societies. All gifts made to the Alumni Annual Fund and the College at Oneonta Foundation are tax-deductible as permitted by law, and when you make a gift to the College at Oneonta Foundation, there are many options as to which scholarship or fund your gift can benefit.

There are several ways to make your gift, which we have listed here for you.


Online
You can make a gift to a variety of different funds by using the Alumni Online Community and the online gift form. The online community is a secure and convenient way to make your gift.

Check
For gifts to the Alumni Annual Fund, please make checks payable to SUNY Oneonta Alumni Annual Fund. For all other gifts, please make checks payable to the College at Oneonta Foundation.

Credit Cards
Charging your gift to your credit card is an easy fast option. You can call us with the necessary information, and we will take care of the rest!

Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)
You can transfer your gift from your checking account on a recurring basis, such as a monthly gift, or as a one-time gift. You can print the form for an EFT to the Alumni Annual Fund or the form for an EFT to the College at Oneonta Foundation.

Payroll Deduction
All SUNY employees can make their gift to the College by having it deducted through their paycheck. To start your making your gifts through payroll deduction, or to adjust the gifts that you are making through payroll deduction, simply print this form and send it to our office.

Appreciated Stock and Mutual Funds
Contributing appreciated stock and mutual funds is a way to make a significant gift while saving capital gains and income taxes. You can specify either a certain number of shares or a dollar amount. If you are interested in making a gift of stock or mutual funds, please contact our office and we will assist you in this transaction and answer any questions you may have.

Planned Gifts
If you are interested in making a gift through a bequest, charitable trust, charitable gift annuity, life insurance, retirement plan, or other planned gift, you can find more information on our gift planning page. You can also e-mail Ellen Blaisdell, Director of Gift Planning, at blaisdem@oneonta.edu.

Real Estate
A residence, vacation home, farm, acreage, or vacant lot may have appreciated in value over the years and selling it outright could result in a sizeable capital gains tax. By giving such property to the College you can support your interests and benefit from considerable tax savings.

Matching Gifts
You can easily maximize your gift to the College by using your employer's matching gift program. To see if you work for a matching gift company you can visit our matching gift page or you can e-mail Sarah Baker, Coordinator of Donor Relations, at bakersl@oneonta.edu.
