Cash Gifts (check or credit card) have an immediate impact on the lives of students. Cash Gifts are tax deductible in the year given. Checks can be made payable to the PSC Foundation or you can give online at bit.ly/PSCF-donate-today Stocks, bonds or other assets are other gift options.
An in-kind gift must fulfill a stated need of the College. Appraisals may be required. Knowledgeable staff can manage unique gifts like automobiles, planes, artwork and more.
ENDOWMENT SCHOLARSHIPS:
By endowing a scholarship, you can make a lasting difference by helping students reduce the amount of federal or private student loans they need.
PLEDGES:
A pledge may be given for greatest needs or designated to begin a scholarship endowment or support a specific program. A pledge can be made in single one-time donation or in multiple payments over time.
