How to Give
Ways to Give to the AOA Annual Fund
Cash and Credit Card Gifts
We accept Visa and Mastercard. If you prefer to write a check, please make checks payable to Andrews Osborne Academy. Our mailing address is 38588 Mentor Ave., Willoughby, OH 44094.
Pledge Payments
Another gift option is to pay a pledge at a later date or in a series of installments. You can specify if you would like to be reminded to pay your pledge in December, March and/or June. Or we are happy to charge your credit card a specified amount each month.
Matching Gifts
You may have the opportunity to double or even triple the value of your gift. Many companies offer matching gift programs to their employees and often to retirees as one of their benefits. Please contact your Human Resources Office to learn more about your company's matching gift policy and to determine if you are eligible for a matching gift.
Stock Gifts
Donors are discovering the ease and added benefits of giving gifts of appreciated securities. Giving a gift of stock will create a tax savings for the donor. Please call the Development Office at 440-942-3600, ext. 246, for additional information.
How Much Should I Give?
Gifts range in various amounts. Only you can decide what amount is appropriate for your family. Our goal is to reach 100% participation from parents and to increase participation from alumni, grandparents, and friends. Each gift, no matter the amount, is important.
