Make a gift by check, eCheck or bank account

Back to all FAQs

The easiest way to make a gift online is by using our eCheck option. By using this option, your gift payment is deducted directly from your personal checking or savings accounts. If you’d prefer, you can also mail in your check (see below) or wire funds to the CU Foundation.

Give by eCheck:
Proceed through checkout, select “Bank Account” in the payment form and provide your bank account and routing information.

This option is currently available for the following types of gifts:

  • One-time gifts (support for recurring coming soon)
  • $10,000 or less (total payment amount)
  • Does not include a license plate fund

Please note: Gifts made via bank account (eCheck) can take 2-3 business days to appear on your bank statement and another 3-5 business days to be fully processed. If your gift is over $10,000 and you’d still prefer to pay electronically, please refer to our instructions for wiring funds to the CU Foundation.
