Is my gift tax deductible?
Yes! Your gift is tax deductible to the fullest extent under IRS guidelines. You may deduct the amount you contributed, less the fair market value of any goods or services you received.
Are employer matching gifts accepted?
Yes, but due to processing restrictions, matching gifts may not be counted in the overall dollar total for Commit to Witt.
Matching gifts from the company or organization you work for double the impact of your gift. Check to see if your employer might match your gift.
Can my donation be anonymous?
Yes, you can make your gift anonymously by simply selecting the box on the giving form.
Can I give through my Donor Advised Fund (DAF) or IRA?
Yes! Contact your financial institution or click here to recommend your DAF or IRA distribution gift to Wittenberg University. Let us know it's on the way by calling us at 937-327-7430 or emailing us at wittfund@wittenberg.edu and we can count it toward our day!
