Ways to Give - Derby Academy

Your participation is about far more than the check you write. It is about coming together as a community to prepare thoughtful and compassionate children to become tomorrow’s leaders.

Make a Gift

Venmo

We fully appreciate the breadth and quality of the sports, art, and special interest programs at the school. Perhaps more than anything, we are extremely grateful for the caring attention to the needs and personalities of each individual student. There is, simply, immense value to Derby’s contribution to the all-around development of its students. Thank you, Derby Academy.

Make a Pledge

Match Your Gift

Many employers will match your charitable contribution. Matching gifts allow you to double or even triple your gift. Check with your employer’s Human Resources department to find out how to participate. When you provide the necessary paperwork, we will ensure that the forms are completed and submitted with the proper documentation. You will be recognized in our Annual Report of Giving for the amount of your contribution and the matching gift.

Give a Gift of Securities

Thank you for your interest in supporting Derby with a gift of securities. Any securities (stocks, bonds, mutual funds) that have appreciated in value may be donated to the school. Current tax law allows a deduction for the appreciated value of a security without paying a capital gain.

Please transfer gifts of stock to:
Custodian: Fidelity
DTC clearing number: 0226
Derby account number: 668207352
Derby account name: Trustees of Derby Academy (Gifting Account)
Derby’s tax ID: 04-2137227

Please let us know the following so that we can be sure to credit your gift properly:

Name of stock to be donated
Number of Shares
Date of the transfer
Estimated value

To ensure our ability to promptly acknowledge your gift, please advise your broker to name you on a trailer on the transaction confirmation.

Once the gift reaches Derby’s account, the school will notify you of the mean value of your gift the day it was received into Derby’s brokerage account for the purpose of determining your charitable contribution.

If you are making a calendar year-end gift, try to allow one business week for processing time. Brokerage offices are typically backlogged in late December.

THANK YOU for including Derby Academy in your charitable giving!
