Initial One-Time gift

An initial one-time gift that can be given at any time to help jump-start the campaign. This can be a standalone gift or the first portion of a pledged commitment to be fulfilled by June 2026.

pledge

A specific amount to be given over a period of time, starting when you decide to pledge and continuing until June 2026.

example

A family decides to invest a total of $8,000. They choose to give an initial one-time gift of $3,000 right away and pledge the remaining $5,000 to be given over a set period of time. Since all pledges conclude by June 2026, the length of their pledge depends on when they start. For example, if they begin in June 2025, their pledge would be spread over 12 months, whereas a pledge starting earlier would allow for a longer giving period.
