2020 is winding down, but donors still have time to make a year-end gift to the College of Sciences.
Please read the information below to make your 2020 year-end gift. Most NC State offices will be closed for winter break from Dec. 24 to Jan. 1; however, the university’s Advancement Services office will be on-call through 5 p.m. ET on Dec. 31.

The fastest way to make a year-end gift is with a credit card at sciences.ncsu.edu/give. Online gifts must be completed by 11:59 p.m. EST on December 31.
Phone
The university’s Advancement Services Office will have staff on call over the holidays through 5 p.m. ET on Dec. 31 to speak with donors who want to give by credit card over the phone. Please leave a message and your call will be returned as soon as possible. The telephone number is 919.515.7827.
