TYPES OF DONATIONS THAT WE ACCEPT
Single Contributions
These donations are the most common, where individuals contribute a specified amount to the nonprofit. They can be made through various channels, such as checks or online forms for credit card donations. Embracing single donations is an excellent way to attract new
Ongoing Contributions
Recurring donations occur at regular intervals, like a monthly commitment. Throughout the year, these donations accumulate into a significant annual gift. They offer convenience to donors, allowing them to contribute regularly without the hassle of remembering or re-entering payment information. Plus, they establish strong, enduring relationships between donors and the organization.
Planned Giving
Legacy donations, also termed planned gifts, provide critical long-term support for nonprofits. These contributions often sustain charities for years, even decades. They come in various forms, including annuities, trusts, and bequests via wills.
Honorary or Memorial Gifts
Donors can contribute in honor or memory of a loved one, expressing appreciation or sympathy while supporting a cause close to their hearts. These donations not only offer financial aid but also raise awareness for the charity’s mission and impact.
Stock Contributions
Donating stock shares is a significant income source for charities. Donors who give appreciated non-cash assets like stocks can benefit from substantial tax advantages. This includes avoiding capital gains taxes on the appreciation and potentially receiving a tax deduction for the full fair market value at the time of donation.
Crypto Contributions
Similar to stock donations, crypto donations involve non-cash asset giving. The crypto community, known for its youth, tech-savviness, and generosity, has become a unique donor demographic supporting causes they believe in. While still emerging, crypto philanthropy has facilitated millions in donations for nonprofits in recent years. We are currently not setup for this type of donation but given the challenge we will make sure that we can accept crypto donations.
Physical Property Gifts
Nonprofits can receive tangible items like cars, boats, and real estate as charitable donations. Sometimes, charities might request specific property types to advance their mission. Donors can benefit from tax deductions while nonprofits decide whether to keep or sell the donated items for cash.
In-Kind Support
In-kind donations encompass non-cash gifts such as time, services, and physical goods. These gifts provide nonprofits with mission-relevant resources and items for fundraising events. Certain volunteer work can also qualify as in-kind donations, especially if they offer specialized skills.
Allowing supporters to contribute in their preferred way and form is strategic fundraising. Providing multiple giving options maximizes the impact of one-time donations while fostering donor appreciation, potentially leading to increased future contributions.
