Always specify “Civic Guild” as the project when you donate. Hopewell hosts many projects. If you do not name a project with your donation, Hopewell may treat it as general support for Hopewell rather than for Civic Guild.
We also recommend emailing us at donations@civicguild.org before or after you give, so we and Hopewell know to expect your donation and can make sure it reaches us.
Donor Advised Funds (DAFs)
If you would like to give from a donor advised fund, follow the ACH and wire transfer instructions below. When you recommend the grant, include Civic Guild as the purpose of the grant in the grant purpose field of your DAF's donation platform, and let us know at donations@civicguild.org so we can confirm the funds are directed to the right project.
