How to Give
All gifts to Joseph Slifka Center are tax deductible, 501c3 #06 1257354.
Less than one-half of our operating expenses are covered by our endowment income, therefore we must rely on our Annual Fund campaign to cover the rest. Current Use (Annual Fund) gifts are applied to our most pressing needs, but do not receive Yale University Credit. If you would like to receive Yale University Credit, please direct your donation to our Unrestricted Endowment.
Both Current Use and Endowment gifts may be made in memory or in honor of a loved one or special occasion. If your gift is being made in honor of or in memory of someone, please tell us when asked for “additional comments” online, or indicate with your mailed check or on the phone.
