To make a gift online
NJIT accepts gifts online. To make a gift using your credit card, please access our secure, easy-to-use make-a-gift form at njit.edu/givenow. You can make a one-time or recurring gift. Recurring gifts may be made in regular monthly, quarterly, or annual installments.

Tribute and Memorial Gifts
Making a gift to NJIT is a special way to commemorate a milestone occasion or to pay tribute to a friend, family member, classmate, a former NJIT professor or coach.
To make a gift in honor or in memory of a special person, please visit njit.edu/givenow or contact Levi F. Dillon, Director, Annual Giving, at 973-596-5677 or levi.dillon@njit.edu.
Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) from Retirement Accounts
If you are age 70½ or older, you may be eligible to make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) directly from your IRA to NJIT. This type of gift allows you to support NJIT while potentially reducing your taxable income, as the distribution counts toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) but is excluded from your gross income. To qualify, the gift must be made directly from the IRA custodian to NJIT and completed by December 31 each year. For more information, please click here or contact the Office of University Advancement.
Cryptocurrency
Support NJIT by making a charitable gift in cryptocurrency. We accept donations in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and over 100 additional leading cryptocurrencies.
Donating crypto is safe, easy, and fast. Using the donation form on this page, making a charitable gift is a quick three-step process:
1. Select your preferred crypto and enter your gift amount
2. Type in your email and basic info (or choose to give anonymously)
3. Make your gift!
Upon making a donation, you can elect to receive an automatically generated tax receipt that will be sent to the email address you provide after a certain amount of confirmations of the transaction on the blockchain. This confirmation of your donation will help you close the loop when calculating your taxes.
Crypto charitable donations are processed quickly and safely with The Giving Block and Gemini Trust Exchange.
