Ways to Give
In addition to one time or recurring gifts made by check, cash, or credit card, there are other opportunities for donors who want to support our school. While all gifts are tax deductible, some options offer additional tax benefits. Please seek the advice of your attorney and/or financial planner for details.

A CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTION FROM YOUR IRA
IRA owners must be age 72 or older to make a tax-free charitable contribution. Those who meet the age requirement can transfer up to $100,000 per year directly from an IRA to an eligible charity without paying income tax on the transaction. Learn more >
MATCHING GIFTS, GRANTS & EVENT SPONSORSHIPS
Your employer may be one of many companies who offer a matching-gift program. That means you can double - and in some cases even triple - the value of your gift to the school. Companies also set aside yearly funds for grants and to support community events. Speak with your Human Resource office and become an ambassador for our school!
NAMED SCHOLARSHIPS
A full or partial annual scholarship directly impacts the life of a student and their family. By providing a scholarship, you are opening the door for a family to receive a solid, classical, Christian, education. Whether you are paying back or paying forward, a scholarship to The Covenant School of Jacksonville will make a lifelong difference for the recipient(s).
GIFTS OF APPRECIATED STOCKS AND SECURITIES
Donors may realize substantial tax savings by transferring appreciated stock to the school prior to the sale. Capital gains on the amount of appreciation may be avoided, and the donor receives a tax deduction based on the fair market value of the stock on the date the stock is transferred. Please seek the advice of your attorney and/or financial planner and notify our development team prior to initiating a transfer.
NAMING GIFTS
Our “Transition to Transformation” capital campaign offers many opportunities to name buildings, classrooms, as well as fine art and athletic facilities. Help us raise capital to grow our school and leave a lasting impact on the school campus. Contact our Development Team for a complete list of naming opportunities.
LEGACY GIFTS
Leaving a legacy through a memorial or honorarium gift is a special way to honor a loved one, a family, or an organization. An acknowledgment will be sent to the family or organization being honored.
