How to Give

Giving to our cause can be done either directly or through a gift model that can provide tax benefits and even income. Click on a gift model below to learn more.

  • You designate our organization as the beneficiary of your asset by will, trust or beneficiary designation form.
  • Congress recently enacted a permanent extension of the IRA Charitable Rollover. As a result, you can make an IRA rollover gift in 2015, 2016 and beyond.
  • You can designate us as a beneficiary of a retirement, investment or bank account or your life insurance policy.
  • You transfer your cash or appreciated property to our organization in exchange for our promise to pay you fixed payments (with rates based on your age) for the rest of your life.
  • You transfer your cash or appreciated property to fund a charitable remainder unitrust. The trust sells your property tax free and provides you with income for life or a term of years.
  • You transfer your cash or appreciated property to fund a charitable remainder annuity trust. The trust sells your property tax free and provides you with fixed income for life or a term of years.
  • You fund a trust that makes gifts to us for a number of years. Your family receives the trust remainder at substantial tax savings.
  • You provide your children with a stream of income while making a gift to charity.
