List of 5 frequently asked questions.

  • Gifts of Cash(Online/Mail)

    A majority of the gifts made to Miami Country Day School come in the form of cash, check, or credit card. A gift of cash entitles you to the most generous federal income tax deduction available for charitable contributions. You may deduct up to 50 percent of your adjusted gross income for gifts of cash and may carry any amount over that figure forward for up to five additional years.
    Checks should be made payable to “Miami Country Day School” and mailed to:

    Miami Country Day School
    Attn: Advancement
    601 NE 107th St,
    Miami, FL 33161

    For online payments by Visa, Mastercard, or American Express, gifts may be made online through our secure donation forms.

  • Gifts of Stock or Security (see attached instructions)

    A gift of appreciated securities held for over one year allows a federal income tax deduction up to the fair market value on the gift date, for up to 30% of your adjusted gross income, without recognizing the appreciation as a capital gain.

  • Wire Transfer Gifts (see attached instructions)

     
    Wire your gift from anywhere in the world and in any currency—subject to limits imposed by U.S. laws and regulations—directly to Miami Country Day School. Your bank of choice should be able to complete this process for you. Please click below for wire transfer instructions. 

  • Matching Gifts

    Your gift can have an even greater impact if your company has a matching gift program. In some cases, your spouse’s company may match your gift. 

    If your company is eligible, request a matching gift from your employer, and send it completed and signed with your gift. We will do the rest. The impact of your gift may be doubled or possibly tripled! (MCDS’s Federal Tax ID: 59-1278987)
