Types Of Gifts - How Can You Help

Your gift today helps create a legacy for educational access for future generations of Foster Youth students at California State University, Long Beach.

The following suggestions are methods you can use to help make this happen:

Gifts of cash are of vital importance because they can be immediately applied to the Endowment Campaign. Pledged cash gifts may be made on a schedule and in amounts convenient to the donor.

Donate online or make a gift by check payable to the "CSULB Foundation."

Mail the check to:
California State University, Long Beach Foundation
6300 State University Drive, Suite #160
Long Beach, CA 90815
ATTN: Student Services Development
C/O: Guardian Scholars Program.

These gifts offer substantial advantages to the donor. The sale of these items by our Program offers the same flexibility as with cash gifts.

Gifts-in-kind contributions includes gift cards and other tangible items that can be used by Guardian Scholars Program.

The most common form of a planned gift is a bequest. For example, our Guardian Scholars Program can be named as a beneficiary in a will. All charitable bequests are tax deductible in full.

Many corporations have programs where an employee's charitable contributions are matched by the company. A company may match an employee's contribution as much as three-to-one, in some cases.

If your employer has a matching gift program, please follow the below process:
- Obtain your matching-gift form, which is usually from your Human Resources office
- Fill out the form and send with your check contribution to:

California State University, Long Beach Foundation
6300 State University Drive, Suite #160
Long Beach, CA 90815
ATTN: Student Services Development
C/O: Guardian Scholars Program.
