Ways to Give
We thank you for supporting the CVCC Foundation!
Gifts designated for our Red Hawk Fund are most appreciated, as they support key institutional priorities and provide CVCC with the ability to respond to changing needs.
The Catawba Valley Community College Foundation, Inc. qualifies as a charitable organization and meets the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). Thus, gifts to the Foundation are deductible at the highest limits allowed for Federal income or estate tax purposes. Please contact your Financial Advisor, Tax Advisor and/or Attorney for detailed information.
All gifts may be designated in honor or memory of a friend, family member or other individual.

Talk with your company’s Human Resource representatives or visit their website for paperwork and additional details.
Gifts In-Kind
Gifts-in-kind are donations of tangible personal property other than cash such as special library collections, tools, vehicles, laboratory equipment, artwork, furnishings and machinery. A gift must be related to the stated need of at least one or more areas of the institution. Prior to donating, please contact Jennifer Jones at (828) 327-7000 ext. 4288 to discuss options.
Gifts of Real Estate
Gifts of homes, commercial buildings, farms, undeveloped land and other real property can be given outright to the Foundation, but require prior approval from the Foundation Board of Directors. For information, please contact Jennifer Jones at (828) 327-7000 ext. 4288.
Gifts of Securities (Stocks, Bonds or Mutual Funds)
Gifts of stocks or securities may give added tax benefits to the donor, as well as support the mission of CVCC. Donating any type of security is most easily completed via electronic transfer** between the broker-dealer and Foundation. For up-to-date transfer information and corresponding account numbers, please contact Jennifer Jones at (828) 327-7000 ext. 4288 or Susan Propst at ext. 4282.
** Please have your broker note your name on the transaction so we may recognize and record your gift appropriately.
Deferred or Planned Gifts - Bequests through a Will
Although outright gifts provide vital resources for CVCC today, deferred or planned gifts (bequests, wills and trusts) help insure CVCC’s future – and provide potentially advantageous tax benefits for the donor. Giving through estate plans may be particularly suitable for individuals who would like to provide significant support for the CVCC Foundation following their lifetime.
