A. If you’re not sure how to get started, or if you just want an overview of how making a donation on our site works, follow the simple steps outlined below.

1. Decide whether you would like to receive a thank-you gift or just simply make a donation.
2. If you prefer to receive a thank-you gift for your donation, visit our thank-you gifts hub and select the thank you gift you would like to receive. Once you’ve found a thank-you, select the “Quantity” you want and click “Add to Cart” and that gift and its donation amount will be added to your total. All of your gifts will be displayed with a subtotal. At this point, you can continue browsing, finish making your donation, or cancel your entire donation. You can increase the amount of your dkonation to include up to five thank-you gifts per donation by searching for additional gifts and adding them to your cart. You can also add an additional gift with your order at anytime. When you are ready to complete your transaction and send your donation, click “Proceed to Checkout.” You have now entered our secure server. Just follow the on-screen directions to complete our simple form. If necessary, you can then delete items on your list by selecting the check box in the “Delete” column.
3. To simply make a donation without a thank-you gift, visit our secure, online No Thank-You Gift donation form. Complete the simple online form and process your donation with a credit card. All of your donation will go towards more quality programming on NJ PBS.
4. NJ PBS’ online donation forms are secure and encrypted for your protection. All credit card numbers submitted to the site are encrypted using “Secure Socket Layer” (SSL) encryption, which is the industry standard for information security and is used by more than 100,000 Web sites in more than fifty countries. Any personal information you submit with your pledge is encrypted and completely secure. Even in the unlikely event that the information you send is intercepted it will not be usable by anyone else.
5. Your peace of mind and safeguarding is very important to us. If you do not feel comfortable submitting your personal information online you can donate by phone by calling us at 1.855.215.6588.
   If you have any further questions, please email our Member & Viewer Relations Department.

If you receive more than one donation invoice after mailing in your check, please email our Member & Viewer Relations Department and we will verify your donation payment.
