OES Fund & Auction

Donate or pledge today to benefit every OES student immediately and be counted as a current donor with a gift by cash, check, credit card, or stock.

Check or Cash: Please make checks payable to Oregon Episcopal School and mail to: OES Development Office, 6300 SW Nicol Road, Portland, OR 97223.

Give Online: Click here to make a gift online.

• Credit Card: You can charge your gift on a VISA, Mastercard, American Express, or Discover.
• Bank Account (direct debit): Enter you bank account and routing numbers to give directly from you bank account. This option saves OES credit card processing fees.

Many donors are able to give more by incorporating philanthropy into their monthly budget by making a monthly recurring gift. OES offers this option through its online giving page.

Pledge Online: Click here to establish a pledge payable at a future date.

Gifts of Stock: Many donors choose to make their gifts in the form of stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or other assets that have increased in value. A gift of appreciated securities (held for more than 12 months) may allow the donor to avoid the high cost of capital gains tax, while also receiving a tax deduction for the appreciated security. Making a stock gift is simple. If you would like to find out more, please contact the Development office, or see detailed instructions for giving stocks.

Matching Gifts: Many companies will match donations from current and retired employees. We encourage you to seek out your employer's matching gift program by contacting your HR department – it could double or triple the size of your gift. See a list of recent matching gifts to OES.

1869 Leadership Society

Named in honor of the year in which the school was founded, the 1869 Society recognizes and celebrates the philanthropic leadership of donors whose combined annual gift to the OES Fund, including the Auction paddle raise, equals $2,500 or more this school year. By placing OES at the top of your philanthropic priorities, you are making a tangible investment that has an immediate impact on the life of the School and its students.

We invite you to make a personally significant contribution to OES. Join the 1869 Leadership Society.

OES invites you to become part of this group of leadership donors, whose annual financial support is the foundation of the OES Fund, representing 80 percent of the total contributions.

Leadership donors are honored at the 1869 Leadership Society Celebration event every year.

In its inaugural year, the OES Evergreen Circle celebrates 364 donors who have supported OES in each of the past three years. Thank you for your loyal support!

New Evergreen Circle members will receive a mailed gift and thank you when their third consecutive gift is made to the school. Every year, donors renew their ongoing Evergreen Circle membership with a gift. 

We look forward to celebrate this group of loyal supporters each spring!

Many companies will match donations from current and retired employees. We encourage you to seek out your employer's matching gift program by contacting your HR department – it could double or triple the size of your gift. See a list of recent matching gifts to OES.
