Sustainer membership is ongoing, so there’s no need to renew.  A new MemberCard is sent automatically each year. However, you do need to notify WFUV if your credit card changes.

You can update online anytime at wfuv.org/sustainerupdate — We’ll replace your existing info. Or, you can call in your update during office hours at (718) 817-2970. Updates require the full card number, expiration date and security code, even if only one part (i.e. expiration date) has changed.  

We do not have online self service, so cancellation or donation amount changes can be made by email at membership@wfuv.org, or calling the membership office at (718) 817-2970.  We typically process them within 24 hours, business days.  If you cancel on a weekend or holiday, the cancelation will be processed the next available business day.  Please include your full name and mailing address, or name and member # with your request.

Thank you gifts are available upon request by contacting WFUV's membership department. We suggest emailing or calling when you receive your MemberCard and your new member year begins. If you prefer to wait for later in the year (as gift options change seasonally), that is fine, too. Gifts cannot be sent automatically, and are only available upon request, because gift options change from year to year, and carry a fair market value that affects the tax-deductible amount of your donation. You can explore Thank You Gifts options in the Benefits section of this website.

Only new contributions are eligible to be matched during a challenge grant. Sustainer members can qualify for the match by making a one-time additional gift during the match period, or upgrading their membership to a higher donation level.

Call or email the membership office and we will be glad to assist you with that change.

No. Gift memberships may only be issued for annual membership.

WFUV emails year-end giving summaries at the end of January to sustainers with an active email on file. Call or email for a copy if you don’t receive yours.

Each company is different, so check with your benefits/HR office for their requirements. We can help with providing additional documentation if needed. WFUV is an accredited 501C3 listed as Fordham University (Tax ID 13-174051).

Please contact membership straight away if you see you were charged twice.  We will investigate and refund any erroneous charges, or any charges that might have been triggered by submitting a new sustainer pledge while a previous pledge was still active.

YES!  You can use your Donor Advised Fund/Annuity/Charitable Giving Fund to make your sustaining membership contributions.  Just notify the membership office via email at membership@wfuv.org, or phone us at (718) 817-2970 so that we can create a pledge with your new membership info. Let us know your monthly gift amount, and when the donations are expected to start, and we'll set up your record to ensure we are prepared to process your gifts. Please include your membership number in the reference on your checks, along with the word "WFUV".  When setting up WFUV as a Payee, note that WFUV is an accredited 501C3, listed under our license holder, Fordham University (Tax ID 13-1740451)
