Individual Support

Thank you for supporting our urgent work to
inspire and equip young people to practice goodness.

A donation to Character.org will support our work toward a future where honesty and respectful people (of all ages) practice the Golden Rule.

 Your donation will help young people understand, care about, and practice the character strengths that will enable them to flourish in school, in the workplace, and as citizens.

Annual Fund

We are a member-based organization. Each year we launch our Annual Fund to bring in new members and supporters. We encourage you to contribute today!

Project-Based Giving

The mission of Character.org extends to schools, parents and families, sports programs, after-school programs, and the workplace. Please contact Dr. Arthur Schwartz, president of Character.org, to learn how your gift can go to a particular Character.org project or initiative.  

Matching Gifts

Many employers and foundations generously offer matching gift programs for their employees. Please check with your company or organization to learn more. Matching gifts is a wonderful way to increase the impact of your gift to Character.org.

To ensure that we will continue our important work for generations to come, we invite you to consider Character.org as part of your legacy. You can make a planned gift through your:

• Will/Living Trust

Endowment Fund

Years ago Dick Pieper, one of our earliest donors, established an Endowment Fund, and our founder, Sandy McDonnell, made a significant contribution to the Fund before his passing. We encourage you to consider a gift to our Endowment Fund to ensure that we can continue our work for years to come.
