Today’s students and tomorrow’s leaders and teachers rely on the generosity of people like you. Our students are grateful for your support.
Most give because they believe that our work — forging leaders who will address issues of religious pluralism and difference, and act as catalysts for solutions to geopolitical, economic, and social problems — will make a difference in the world.
Indeed, your support for our work surely will make a difference in the world!

If you make your gift online, choose a fund from the drop down menu. If you do not see the fund you want to support, please call us at 510-649-2531 for more information. If you mail your gift to us, choose one of the funds noted on our standard gift form or choose “other” and write in the fund you want to support.
Shortly after we receive your gift, we will send you an acknowledgement letter that you can use as your official receipt for tax purposes. If you made a donation online, you will receive an online gift confirmation as well.
Feel free to contact the Vice President for Advancement or GTU President directly if you would like to discuss a large gift.
