Welcome to the Boston College Call Center
Each year we talk with nearly 7,000 alumni, parents, and friends about Boston College, answering questions, sharing news from campus, highlighting resources and events, updating contact information, and facilitating donations to all areas of the University. We call from 6:00 p.m.-9:00 p.m. on Mondays-Thursdays, and 3 p.m.–6 p.m. on Fridays. If you see our number (617-552-2015) be sure to answer!
Stay Connected to BC
We are a team of Boston College undergraduate students who are responsible for calling alumni, parents, and friends to discuss all things BC and to share philanthropic opportunities on campus.
Mondays-Thursdays 6 p.m.–9 p.m. EST
Fridays 3 p.m.–6 p.m. EST
You are welcome to call our team at 617-552-2015 during any of the shifts listed above. If you would like to contact us at another time, we recommend emailing eaglecallers@bc.edu.
You will automatically receive a confirmation email directly after the transaction is completed, and our Gifts Processing team will also send a formal receipt in the day or two following your transaction with the details of your donation.
For data security, we do not save credit card information on file. If you decide to set up a recurring gift on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis, then our system can initiate this. This system is fully secure and we are unable to see your card information.
To make a one-time or recurring gift, click here. To fulfill an existing pledge, click here.
You can find out if your company matches donations at bc.edu/matchinggift.
If your company matches gifts, forward your receipt to the HR team which handles philanthropy for your business.
A pledge is a promise to support BC with a donation before the end of our fiscal year on May 31. Pledges help our team estimate the number of donations we can expect to receive so that our projections for the year are more accurate. Throughout the semester, if you have an outstanding pledge, we will send digital and physical pledge reminders. You can fulfill your pledge by giving online or via mail.
BC’s fiscal year ends on May 31 each year. Online donations can be completed up until the deadline. Mail donations should be postmarked before May 31 in order to count for that fiscal year. Wire, stock, and DAF donations should be initiated about a week before May 31 to ensure completion on time.
