Making a gift to Duke is easy. You can give online; by mail, phone, or wire transfer; or through payroll deduction. Give where it's needed most or designate your gift to any Duke school or program that is important to you.
The most common way of giving to Duke Health is to make an outright gift of cash, securities, or personal property. Outright gifts offer the distinct advantage of being immediately available to assist Duke in its programs and are deductible on your taxes applicable to the year of the gift.
A pledge demonstrates your intention to make a gift to the University and may allow you to give more generously over a period of time than would be possible through a single contribution. You can make a commitment to Duke payable over a period of three to five years. To make a pledge, simply choose the "Pay a Pledge" option on the online giving form.
