Become a Cougar GEM by Making a Monthly Recurring Gift

Gives Every Month

Our Cougar GEMs “give every month,” creating long-term, sustainable support for the University. Monthly gifts allow us to take a planned approach, creating stability in the areas of greatest need across campus. 

Donors who make monthly gifts of at least $10 are eligible for GEM Pop Up Perks, including surprise drawings for Caldwell gifts throughout the year.

We encourage all new GEMs to consider a gift of $19.39 monthly, commemorating the founding year of Caldwell University. 

Become a GEM by making a gift here.
For more information, contact alumni@caldwell.edu or call 973-618-3226.

Matching Gifts: Today many companies encourage their employees, retirees and spouses to contribute back to the community by offering the donor the opportunity to have their gift matched. By participating in this employer-supported program, you may double or even triple your gift’s impact on the University. Check with your employer’s Human Resource/Benefit Office.

Planned Giving: Planned gifts have distinct tax advantages depending upon your financial situation. The University will be happy to speak with you about a variety of gift planning vehicles and how they can help you achieve your philanthropic goals while maximizing income and/or tax benefits.
