Friends of SDPB's Sustaining Members give on a recurring basis, most often monthly. Sustaining memberships save time, fees, and material resources since you will no longer receive renewal notices in the mail. Sustaining memberships also create a dependable base of support for SDPB.

As a Sustaining Member, your donation will be debited from your account each month and your membership will be automatically renewed at the end of your membership year. Each January, we will send you a record of your giving history for tax purposes. Of course, you can change or cancel your payments at any time.

Your sustaining pledge can be paid either by EFT or credit card. The most efficient sustaining gifts are paid by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) from your checking or savings account. The fees that Friends of SDPB incurs on EFT gifts are nominal, and EFT gifts need fewer updates than credit card gifts, i.e. when expiration dates change or cards are compromised.

Credit or debit card payments are also an option, and while Friends of SDPB pays a processing fee for your recurring gift, credit card payments are convenient and easy for you as a member. You may also elect to increase your pledge to cover these processing fees.

Make changes to current pledges in your mySDPB account, or contact Member Services (605-677-5861) during regular business hours.

If you want to make sure you are a Sustaining Member, please contact Member Services (605-677-5861) or email friends@sdpb.org. It's possible that you have been paying monthly but we didn't know you intended for your gift to extend beyond 12 months.

We will double-check to make sure we have the correct address and that your membership has not expired. We also send out an electronic version by email.

Gift Memberships can be chosen as a thank you gift from our donate page or when you make a donation by phone. You can also contact Member Services (605-677-5861). We will send the recipient a letter notifying the person that they have received a gift membership.

Yes. We recognize that an installment gift is a way to budget your donation, by spreading your payments out over monthly, quarterly or semiannual payments. We offer the convenience of monthly contributions via EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer from your checking or savings account) or by credit or debit card.

Note that installment gifts end after the pledge is fulfilled and are not automatically considered sustaining gifts. You will need to pledge again in 12 months to keep your membership active.

During your membership year, you may receive a request for an additional contribution beyond your renewal gift. Additional contributions from current members are an important part of our strong member support.

Our experience shows that many Friends of SDPB members who feel they would like to, but cannot give a larger contribution when renewing, send "extra" gifts during their membership year. These gifts do not extend your membership year and should not be confused with renewal reminders.

Your recent renewal gift may also have crossed in the mail with our latest letter to you. In this case, please disregard or contact Member Services to verify that your renewal gift has been received and credited to your membership.

Donations by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) from your checking or savings account may take up to 10 days to process and will not appear on your banking institution's account immediately. Grouping these transactions together saves Friends of SDPB considerable expense and helps us be the best stewards of our resources. In future months, EFT installments or sustaining gifts, are processed on either the 10th or the 20th of each month.

Donations by credit or debit card may take up to 72 hours to process and will not appear on your banking institution's account immediately. In future months, credit or debit card payments will be processed on the 5th of each month, or the next business day if the 5th is a weekend or holiday.

You can update your information in one of three easy ways.

First, you can update your payment information online at mySDPB or Update My Payment. This will replace your existing information with the updated payment information that you provide.

Second, you can convert your credit card payment to Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). The fee that Friends of SDPB incurs on EFT gifts is nominal and substantially lower than credit card fees. EFT gifts also need less maintenance as there is no change when a credit card's expiration dates changes or when a cards has been compromised. Update today at mySDPB or sdpb.org/updatemypayment.

Third, you may call Member Services (605-677-5861).

Check with your Human Resources department to obtain your organization's matching gift information. Your company may need the acknowledgement letter that we mail to you in order to begin processing a matching gift.

Please be aware that your company may deduct the Fair Market Value of any thank you gift(s) before determining the amount that they will match.
