New: Cryptocurrency Giving Cryptocurrency, also known as Virtual Currency or “Crypto,” is a digital asset designed to function as an alternative to sovereign fiat currency (US Dollars, for example) whereby transactions between two parties are verified through a public, distributed ledger, also known as a blockchain. Visit our website calbaptist.edu/give to find more information and to make a gift of cryptocurrency.
Give a Gift of Stocks or Bonds A gift of stocks or bonds is a great way to support CBU. This charitable gift is typically tax-deductible and may avoid capital gains taxes.
Give a Gift-In-Kind You can also help make a difference by donating non-monetary goods that can be used to help advance the mission of CBU.
Gifts-in-Kind range from real estate, equipment and books to intangible personal property like securities, patents and licenses. These gifts are highly valuable and can greatly benefit the university both now and in the future.
Give a Gift of Real Estate A gift of a property (such as your home, vacation property, vacant land, farmland, or commercial property) can make a great gift. If you own appreciated real estate, you may avoid paying capital gains tax by donating it to CBU.
Give a Gift of Retirement Assets A gift of your retirement assets, such as a gift from your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), pension or other tax-deferred plan, is an excellent way to make a gift.
Give a Bequest The Palm Drive Legacy Society recognizes alumni and friends who have invested in California Baptist University’s future through a planned gift.
Examples of a planned gift include: • Bequests and trusts • Annuities • Charitable IRA rollovers • Beneficiary designations
