Ways to Give
Capital depends on the generosity of our donors to help us provide the programs and services that shape the lives of our students.
There are many ways you can donate to Capital University. You can make a one-time gift now, make a gift pledge, payable over several years, or set-up automatic recurring monthly gifts to continue as long as you wish to give to Capital.
You can make a one-time gift to Capital online using your Visa, Mastercard, or Discover.
You can mail us a one-time gift, or set up a recurring gift. Checks may be sent to:

If you are 70.5 or older, giving from your IRA can help reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it! By using the link below to give from your IRA, you can auto-complete your paperwork and we can track your gift to send you the proper tax receipts.
Donating stocks allows you to avoid capital gains tax and often take a charitable deduction for the full value of the asset. Use the button below to donate stock so we can track your gift, send you the correct receipt, and ensure you can get the tax savings you deserve. If you would prefer to make your donation through your broker, access our transfer information from the link below to notify Capital University of your gift.
Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are investment accounts for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations today. This tool automatically links with your DAF, allows you to recommend how you’d like your gift to be used and notifies us of your intentions. Using the link below to grant from your DAF also saves us a lot of time, so thank you! It’s a great way to ensure consistent financial support while saving cash for immediate needs.
We now accept donations of Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies! This gives us one more way to fund our work and can provide you with extra tax benefits.
Before you make your donation to Capital, check our Matching Gifts page to see if your employer offers matching gifts. Often you can double or even triple the value of your gift by completing a simple form. Members of Thrivent can also direct their Choice Dollars to Capital.
Capital faculty and staff can give back to the university via check, credit card using the online giving form, or through payroll deduction. To establish payroll giving, please contact Human Resources and ask for the payroll deduction form at hr@capital.edu.
