Ways to Give

You can become a Cristo Rey Jesuit Seattle scholarship sponsor by pledging $20,000 to sponsor one CRJS student from grade 9 through graduation, or $5000 to sponsor one student for one year. To prepare for our first class of grade 9 students entering in the fall of 2024, 100+ students need a sponsor. Will you help?

With an IRA qualified charitable distribution (QCD), also known as an IRA charitable rollover, individuals may make direct charitable distributions of up to $100,000 from their traditional, rollover, or Roth IRAs without including such distributions in their gross income, if they meet the following requirements: 

• A donor must be at least 70 1/2 years of age at the time of the transfer 

• The funds must pass directly from the donor’s IRA custodian to CRJS

This provision applies to: IRAs, Roth IRAs, inactive SEPs, and inactive SIMPLE IRAs. Active SEP, active SIMPLE IRAs, 403(b)s, 401(k)s, and pension plans are not eligible. The gift may satisfy a donor’s IRA required minimum distribution for the year. Since the amount of the direct charitable distribution can be excluded from the donor’s gross income, there is no federal income tax deduction available for such gifts.

Please contact Sarah Dahleen, Vice President of Advancement, if you would like to make an IRS qualified charitable distribution to CRJS.

Double or triple your impact!

Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions or volunteer hours made by their employees. To find out if your company has a matching gift policy, please contact your employer.

If your company has a matching gift program, you may need to complete the gift matching process online via your company’s donation portal - or request a matching gift form from your employer and send it with your gift. The impact of your gift to CRJS may be doubled or possibly tripled. Some companies will match gifts made by retirees and/or spouses.

Be an advocate for Cristo Rey Jesuit Seattle. Ask your family, friends, and employers to make donations, become a corporate partner, or simply make an introduction to the school. Thank you for your support!
