Become a Friend

There are several ways to donate and become a Friend of GCHA.

First, drop us a brief email to give us the good news that you want to become a Friend, or to ask questions about the Friends program:  [email protected]. If you’ve decided to become a Friend, please also let us know the amount of your pledge (the minimum pledge is $5,000 USD per year for at least three years). 

Then, decide which method of giving is best for you—check (personal or DAF); bank or wire transfer; stock transfer; or credit card—and make your first year’s gift. See the details below about each giving option.

Donations by credit or debit card—while always appreciated—have one important disadvantage: high transaction processing fees.  Therefore, when possible, we encourage our Friends to donate using one of the other options. 

Note: You can make your three-year gift now if you wish. If you prefer to give annual gifts, you will receive a reminder each year when it’s time for your annual gift.
