Donations

The Academy for Lifelong Learning is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation.

We currently have two funds that you can support with your donations:

  • The Operations Fund helps ALL cover its operating expenses.  Due to the reduced number of members, membership dues are no longer sufficient to support our entire operation.  Donations to this fund are critically important to help ALL continue providing ongoing educational opportunities.
  • The Scholarship Fund provides scholarships to full time OSU undergraduate students in their final year of study who qualify for financial assistance.  Consider sharing your love of learning with a deserving student by making a donation to this fund.

To make a donation to one or both of these funds, click on the Donate Now button below to be connected to our secure donation processing system.  All donations to these funds are tax deductible as allowed by law.

Selecting the Donate Now button takes you to to a secure site run by Qgiv.

Dedicated Donations

If you would like to dedicate your donation to honor the work or the memory of a particular person, just click on the dedication box on the Qgiv form and tell us about the dedication.  You could dedicate the donation in memory of an important person in your life or in honor of a presenter, an ALL volunteer, or person whose work you admire.  If you provide the honoree’s contact information, we will notify them that they have been honored with a donation in their name.  You may make the donation anonymously if you wish.

Oregon Cultural Trust

ALL is registered as a cultural organization with the Oregon Cultural Trust.  If you make a donation to ALL and match that donation with a donation to the Cultural Trust, you can claim a tax credit on your Oregon tax return for the amount donated to the Cultural Trust—up to $500 for an individual or $1,000 for a couple. 

Go to the Cultural Trust website for more information — www.culturaltrust.org.
