Donations made to Grand Circle Foundation are tax deductible (Federal Tax Number is 04-3175434). The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) Private Non-operating Foundation. All administration fees are funded by Grand Circle Corporation and 100% of donations are forwarded to the schools and organizations supported by Grand Circle Foundation.

Please do not send items you wish to donate to a Grand Circle Foundation site to our Boston office. The Foundation does not have a shipping budget to send these items to their intended recipient. In addition, we discourage you from sending donated items directly to these international sites because the schools and organizations we support do not have the means to pay for customs duties and transportation to collect the items.

Prior to your trip, if you wish, you may choose to bring along a few items for the school or community visit, such as pencils, chalk, or other school or sports supplies. Your Final Documents booklet will outline the types of items needed or requested. After you’ve returned from your trip, if you’d like to make a donation to a school or organization you visited that’s supported by Grand Circle Foundation, we can only accept donations by check.

Your GCT Final Documents booklet includes information about the types of items that are most needed and appreciated by the schools and organizations supported by Grand Circle Foundation.
