Cash gifts are the most common to our school and are accepted for any of Country Day's fundraising activities. All gifts to SCDS are tax deductible.
Pledged Gifts
Country Day accepts pledged gifts for the annual Fund for Country Day, capital campaigns and all school fundraising initiatives. Pledges to the Fund for Country Day must be paid in full by June 30th of each year. Capital pledges are normally paid over a five-year period. Online pledges are accepted at savcds.org/giving.
If you would like to make a pledge for a gift, please contact the Director of Advancement, Craig Brooks at cbrooks@savcds.org or (912)961-8825.
Gifts of Stock
Utilizing stock to make a gift can be an effective way to reduce tax liabilities. By donating highly appreciated stock, you can make a gift and avoid capital gains on the stock. Contact Sonja Henry in the Advancement Office at henry@savcds.org for more details on how to make this type of gift transaction.
Matching Gifts
Double or even triple the amount of your gift to SCDS! Many companies offer programs that will match donations to SCDS by their employees, directors, employees' spouses, or retirees. To find out if your company has a matching gift policy, please check with your Human Resources department. If your company offers a matching gift program, please fill out your company form and send it to:
The Savannah Country Day School Office of Institutional Advancement 824 Stillwood Drive Savannah, Georgia 31419
