How do I give to the campaign? It’s easy! Just push "Support Your Class!" then select fund that inspires you the most. We strongly recommend designating your dollars to the Naval Academy Fund which is our most versatile fund.

Do I have to give online? Giving online allows you to participate in leaderboards and other campaign matches and challenges. However, we welcome gifts by phone, mail, and stocks. If you wish you make a gift through your Donor Advised Fund, please proceed with an online gift and you will have the opportunity to process your DAF gift online. For more information on ways to give, please click here.

• To make a gift by phone, call 410-295-4115. 
• To give by mail, make your check payable to U.S. Naval Academy Foundation and include the fund you wish to support in the memo, and mail to: U.S. Naval Academy Foundation, P.O. Box 79169, Baltimore, MD 21279.
• To make a gift by stock, please email Darlene Jackson at darlene.jackson@usna.com or call 410-295-4115.

How do I make a gift to a fund that isn’t listed? You will need to email the Annual Giving Team at annualgiving@usna.com to inquire about giving to a fund that isn't listed. 

How many times can I give? Give as many times as you’d like — each of your gifts will make an impact, but you will only be counted as a donor one time.

What is President's Circle? President's Circle is the USNA Foundation Giving Society of more than 2,500 alumni, parents and friends providing philanthropic resources that strengthen the Brigade of Midshipmen. Benefits of this society start at $2,500 ($1,000 for Young Alumni). For more information, please click here. 

Can I support the campaign with a match or challenge gift? Yes! Match and challenge gifts help encourage additional giving and increase the impact of your gift. You can easily set up a match or challenge on this campaign page.

What does my gift support? You can choose to support any designation that is listed and your donation will be directed there.

Can I give to more than one program? You may select one program per gift. To support more than one fund, please complete separate transactions.

I already gave this year, does my gift still count toward the challenge? Your gift supports midshipmen whenever you choose to make it. However, the Great Class Challenge campaign only counts donors and dollars raised during the campaign timeframe, April 8- May 8, 2026. If you already made a gift this year, but before April 8th, please consider making an additional gift to elevate your class.

Does my gift count towards my Class Project?  Yes, any gift you make during the Great Class Challenge will count towards the total check your class presents to the Superintendent at your class's reunion.

Is my gift tax-deductible? Yes. You’ll receive a gift receipt upon completion of your gift.
