Leave a Legacy

Create lasting impact through stock gifts, IRA distributions, QCDs, donor-advised funds, and planned giving.

Donate Stock

Stock or securities gifts go toward the same great cause, our children and families, but carry extra benefits not associated with gifts made by check, cash, or credit card. You avoid capital gains tax, receive credit for the full fair market value of the shares (even though the cost to you is the original purchase price), and your charitable deduction is based on the full fair market value of the shares on the date the gift is made.

Make a Gift From Your IRA

If you’re 70 ½ or older, then making a gift from your IRA may be the most beneficial way to support our mission. Called an IRA Charitable Rollover or Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), this way to give allows you to make a significant difference for our families while also saving on taxes.

Also, if you have a required minimum distribution (RMD), then your gift could satisfy that requirement. Use our tool below or contact your account custodian to request the direct transfer using the following information:
