We offer two secure online giving options. These provide convenient ways for you to give, while streamlining the processing of gifts for the school.

Electronic Fund Fransfer (EFT)
Through eGive, we receive Electronic Fund Transfers directly from your bank account. You can make a one-time gift or schedule recurring gifts. Set the schedule you desire: weekly, monthly, twice monthly, etc. Stop, start, or change the schedule or amount at any time.

Credit Card
Through Google Checkout for Nonprofits, you can charge your contribution to your Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express card. Click on the button below to give us information about your gift, then complete your transaction on Google's secure server.

Which online option should you use?
Our preference is EFT through eGive. After an initial free period (through 2008), credit card giving will be the more expensive online giving option. eGive also offers you more giving flexibility.
