Yes, recurring, planned gifts and bequests are powerful ways to sustain Temple’s future. Donors have the option to schedule payments monthly, quarterly or annually. The payments will stop when your commitment has been fulfilled, if your credit card expires or the numbers change.

To set up a recurring gift via our online form, click the “Scheduled Payments” option and fill out the required sections. You’ll have the option to schedule notification emails to remind you when your card will be charged. We recommend opting in for these emails because they allow you to edit the details of your payment using a secure URL.
