Your contribution will provide resources for SAH members at all levels of their careers, including graduate students, contingent faculty, and underserved professionals, whose work enriches our understanding of the built environment.

Ways to Give to SAH
Donations of Cash
Outright gifts of cash are fully tax-deductible. Gifts may be made by check made payable to SAH or charged to a Visa, Mastercard, or American Express, either online or mailed to SAH. Unrestricted contributions to the Annual Fund are preferable so that SAH can apply those funds where they are most needed. SAH accepts donations from Donor Advised Funds.
Gifts of Securities
If your stock is held in a brokerage account, your broker can transfer your gift to us electronically. Contact Development Director Carolyn Garrett at cgarrett@sah.org to receive instructions to transfer your gift of securities, provide donor information and stock transfer details.
IRA Charitable Distributions
Individuals age 70 1/2 and older can make a direct transfer of funds from their IRA to a qualified charitable organization such as SAH. Contact your tax advisor for details and please let SAH know when a disbursement is on the way from your account.
Employer Matching Gifts
Many employers will match charitable contributions to SAH with an equal or higher amount to that of their employee, board member, retiree, or employee’s spouse. If a matching gifts program is available, please consider SAH for the matching gift.

Create your long-term legacy and help ensure the future of the Society of Architectural Historians through a deferred gift.
