How do I make a memorial gift?
You can designate your gift in memory or in honor of a loved one by selecting Memorial/Honor Donation when you access the online donation form. You may also request a supply of pre-addressed donation envelopes via e-mail to getsyjm@upmc.edu or call 412-623-4700 for assistance.

Will a small gift still make a difference?
Every gift makes an impact. Several small gifts can be coupled to make a very meaningful difference to help fund a start-up pilot project or help a scientist fund research to compete for federal research grants. Your gift is powerful in many ways.

Will I receive acknowledgement of my gift?
Yes. Online donating will generate an immediate confirmation. The Development office will acknowledge donations sent by mail as soon as possible. A gift in honor or in memory of a loved one will also be acknowledged to the individual or family member specified by the donor.

Is my gift tax deductible?
Yes. UPCI and UPMC Cancer Centers are not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organizations. All donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law, and will be publicly acknowledged unless otherwise requested by the donor. A copy of the letter documenting tax-exempt status is available from the Development Office.

How can I utilize my company's matching gift program?
If your company has a phone or Web match program, please indicate that you have made these arrangements when you return your gift to us. Matching gifts are directed to the same designation as your personal gift, unless the company's policy indicates otherwise.
If you have any questions or problems, contact Kara Robertson by e-mail or by phone at 412-624-3526.
