Online Giving allows you to make gifts and pledges to the institution via e-checks and credit cards and to designate how your gift/pledge is to be used.
The step-by-step transaction process is easy to use, and you have the option to target your gift to specific programs. All gifts and pledges can be given in memory or in honor or an individual. When making a pledge, you can also indicate how and when the pledge will be fulfilled.
