Matching Gifts
Many employers will match your donation to the Foundation. You can submit your company's matching gift form with your contribution and it can significantly increase your support.
Bequests
Gifts through wills and bequests can provide the opportunity to honor loved ones.
Charitable Trusts
Charitable trusts and charitable gift annuities offer an opportunity to make a substantial gift to the Foundation without forfeiting the annual income produced by these assets. You can retain income for your lifetime and the lifetime of your spouse. This gift can also be structured to create a substantial tax benefit over a period of years.
Life Insurance
Many people own some form of life insurance. Life insurance can play an important part in planned charitable giving. Life insurance for charitable purposes can be accomplished by 1) the transfer of ownership of an existing policy to the Foundation; or, 2) the purchase of life insurance which names the Foundation as the beneficiary and/or owner.
Gifts of Appreciated Property
With careful planning, charitable gifts of long-term appreciated securities or real estate can create very favorable tax benefits, such as eliminating long-term capital gains taxes and receiving and income tax deduction.
Gifts in Kind
Gifts of goods or services can be of great financial assistance to the Foundation, while offering the donor a tax deduction for the fair market value of the gift. Please contact the Foundation for further information.
Thank you!
