How To Give

We are pleased to share with you information on investing in Winchester Thurston School. Some charitable gifts can provide immediate tax benefits, while others help reduce your taxable estate or even provide an annual income. Regardless of which you choose, your gift will make an impact on current and future students of WT.

Mail

Send your check or money order payable to Winchester Thurston School to:

Advancement Office
Winchester Thurston School
555 Morewood Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15213

Credit Card 

Make a secure online gift using a credit or debit card, or call 412-578-3748 and a member of our team will assist you with your gift. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.

Corporate Matching Gifts

Many corporations and businesses sponsor matching gift programs that will match charitable contributions made by their employees, employees’ spouses, or retirees. This is a great way to double or even triple your gift to WT.

Pledges

To make a pledge payable over time, please contact Caitlin Colapietro, Assistant Director of Advancement, at 412-578-3748.

Planned Giving

For more information about the Miss Mitchell Society or planned gifts, contact Dana DePasquale, Director of Advancement, at 412-224-4644.

EITC & OSTC

EITC and OSTC play a vital role in the livelihood of WT's financial aid programming. In addition to providing WT with the resources we need to accommodate the growing need for financial aid, EITC and OSTC allow businesses and individuals to earn significant tax credits.

IRA 

If you own an IRA and are age 70 ½ or over, you can make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) of as much as $100,000 from your IRA without paying income tax on the withdrawal. Your IRA administrator must transfer the funds directly from your IRA to WT.
