Cash Gifts
Cash is the simplest asset to donate to Yale, and the simplest asset for Yale to accept and quickly put to good use.
Making a Cash Gift
Yale accepts gifts of cash via credit card, check, or wire transfer.
Giving with a Credit Card
To give by credit card (Visa, Mastercard, or American Express), please make your gift online or call 1.800.395.7646 or 203.432.5436.
Giving by Check

Matching Gifts
Your gift can have an even greater impact if your employer has a matching gift program.
If your company participates, request a matching gift form from your employer and send it to Yale completed and signed with your gift. We’ll do the rest. Matched gifts may double or even triple your original gift amount. Your spouse’s company may also match your gift, and some companies also match gifts made by retirees.
Make your gift today.
Your generous support can benefit students, faculty, collections, the campus, programs, and more. And together, we can shape a better world.
