Ways to Give

Ways to Give

Regardless of how you choose to make a gift, remember that the Jesuit Volunteer Corps is a registered 501(c)(3) organizations. All contributions are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Online Giving

Go green and give online, where there will never been a stamp, paper, or carbon required to send in your donation. Just use your credit card or write a virtual check with an electronic fund transfer from your bank account.^*

Consider making a regular monthly gift. By spreading your payments across the course of the year, you can multiply the size of your overall donation and increase your impact for JVC.

Gifts of $1,000 or more qualify you for the Corps of Companions.

^* Gifts made with a credit card are subject to a 3-5 percent fee, which is removed from the total amount that JVC receives. There are no such fees associated with virtual checks via electronic fund transfers.

Traditional Mail

If you would prefer to remit your donation through the mail, make your check payable to Jesuit Volunteer Corps and send it to:

Jesuit Volunteer Corps
801 St. Paul St
Baltimore, MD 21202-2448

Memorial and Honorary Gifts

Any donation you make can become a tribute gift. For birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, graduations, promotions, holidays, or in memory of someone who has died, you can honor your loved ones with a gift to JVC. Be sure to make note of it along with your check, online donation, or in conversation with JVC staff.

Matching Gifts

Your employer may match your donation to JVC. Contact your HR or payroll department about your company's matching-gift policy; some even match gifts made by spouses or retirees. When you send us your signed form, the impact of your gift may be doubled, or even tripled.

Securities

If the stock you donate has appreciated in value from the time of your purchase, you can avoid paying future capital gains tax by donating shares directly to JVC. The full value of the shares at the time of the donation is tax deductible. Contact the development@jesuitvolunteers.org for more information.

Bequests

You can make a lasting contribution toward our mission by considering a bequest to JVC through your will or living trust. For more information, contact the development@jesuitvolunteers.org.

Qualified Retirement Plans

Naming JVC as a beneficiary in your qualified retirement plan (IRA, KEOGH, 401(k) or 403(b)) could result in more assets being passed to your heirs than if you make a bequest from other funds in your estate. For more information, contact the development@jesuitvolunteers.org.

JVC places over 300 Jesuit Volunteers in 32 cities in the U.S. and 6 countries across the world. JVs save the agencies and schools where they work thousands of dollars each year and often fill positions that would otherwise remain vacant. Those savings mean more people in needy communities are reached.

JVC needs to raise approximately $5,800 per Jesuit Volunteer to operate our program. This includes everything from recruiting and placing volunteers and placement agencies, providing continuing support throughout the term of service, facilitating a quality formation program that includes retreat opportunities, travel expenses and health insurance for international JVs, and staff support.

JVs could not have this incredible support if it were not for their generous family and friends!
