Cash-Type Gifts

Gifts to The Fourth School can be made in a variety of ways. All gifts provide immediate benefits to the school and are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.

Gifts of Cash

Please make checks payable to The Fourth Presbyterian School and mail to The Business Office, 10701 South Glen Road, Potomac, MD 20854. A cash gift entitles the donor to an income cash deduction in the year in which the gift is made. You can also choose to make donations of cash to the school through payroll deductions at your workplace.

Credit Cards

Contributions can be made online by credit card using VISA or MasterCard. For questions, please contact our Associate Business Manager, Sallie Holdrich, at 301-765-8133.

Matching Gifts—Multiply a Gift for Christian Education

Just as the wise servants in Matthew 25 increased the talents given them, you can increase a gift to The Fourth School through the Matching Gifts program at your workplace.

Companies often sponsor matching gift programs that enhance their employee’s charitable contributions. When gifts are matched, the Fourth School benefits from the increased donation. To initiate a gift, please contact the human resources/personnel office at your workplace.

Gifts of Securities

An outright gift of appreciated securities held for more than one year entitles the donor to an income tax deduction for the fair market value of the securities. In addition, the donor is able to avoid a capital gains tax. To donate securities, please instruct your broker to hold the stock for The Fourth School and contact the school for more information. Your tax deduction is the price of the stock on the date of its transfer to Fourth’s account.
