Your gift to Amy and Adam is a donation to the Jacobs Family Philanthropic Fund, which is fully tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. The Amy & Adam Jacobs Family Philanthropic Fund is a Donor Advised Fund of the Jewish Community Foundation. Amy and Adam will make grant recommendations at their discretion from this fund to support the 501(c)(3) nonprofits of their choice in the issue-areas they are most passionate about.

Give By Credit Card

You may include comments, questions and special instructions within the form. Please note: Jewish Community Foundation of San Diego is charged a fee (approximately 3%) by the processing banks. While you will receive a tax receipt for the full amount of your donation, the proceeds credited to the fund will be reduced by this fee.

If you encounter any problems with our secure online credit card donation system, please call the Jewish Community Foundation at 858-279-2740 to make a donation by phone. You may include comments, questions and special instructions.

Publicly Traded Securities and Mutual Funds

Donating appreciated securities often allows donors to make a bigger philanthropic impact, and to receive greater tax advantages than donating cash or selling the stock and donating the proceeds. By donating appreciated securities, you bypass capital gains tax and may deduct the fair market value of your gift.

Please call 858-279-2740 or email us for further instructions.

Wire Transfer

You may make a contribution via a direct bank wire to the Foundation. Please call 858-279-2740 or email us for further instructions.

Cryptocurrency

Donating cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin, may result in a tax deduction equal to the fair market value of the donated cryptocurrency (as determined by a qualified appraisal). Your gift to charity may also be larger because instead of paying income or capital gains taxes, the Jewish Community Foundation will receive the full value of your contribution. Donors should consult with a professional tax advisor prior to gifting cryptocurrency. We partner with Giving Block to process this donation. Giving Block’s processing and administrative cost is currently 4.65% of the U.S. Dollar-denominated proceeds. The net proceeds can be credited to your Donor Advised Fund or directed to any 501(c)3 charity.
