Can I give to more than one team?

When will my card be charged?

Does my gift count in Transforming RIT: The Campaign for Greatness?
Yes. Your Get in the Game gift counts in Transforming RIT: The Campaign for Greatness.
Will I receive a receipt for my gift?
Yes! Official tax receipts are issued to the legal donor at the time gifts are made for outright gifts and pledge payments. These receipts, which may be sent electronically or through USPS, must comply with IRS and include substantiation statements for goods or services received as a result of the gift.
Is my gift tax-deductible?
RIT, under IRS law, qualifies as a charitable and tax-exempt organization. If you make a charitable gift to RIT, you may take an income tax deduction. Under current law, contributions to charitable organizations are tax deductible only for taxpayers who itemize. For itemizers, such donations generally reduce taxable income and, therefore, federal income tax liability. RIT recommends you consult with a tax advisor when attempting to claim a charitable deduction. For more information, please visit the IRS website.
