Making Charitable Contributions

The Commonwealth Homeland Security Foundation will gather funds from individuals, foundations, and corporations throughout Virginia with the purpose of allowing tax-advantaged giving for programs, research and applied technologies in emergency preparedness. As a founding sponsor of the CHSF, George Mason University has facilitated the establishment of the Foundation by arranging for the use of the George Mason University Foundation, Inc. as a repository for CHSF funds. This arrangement requires any check be made payable to GMUF rather than to CHSF directly. The CHSF will coordinate its efforts with state and local governments and colleague academic institutions and will be advised in this process by Abrams Learning and Information Systems, Inc.

Contribute By Check
