Cash Gifts and PledgesA gift of cash is available immediately for our use and offers you potential tax benefits. We also welcome pledges of cash payable over time. Matching GiftsOften the company you work for will match your outright, or deferred, gift to a charitable organization like ours. Contact your company's Charitable Giving or Human Resources Department. You may find that you can increase the amount of your support to The Arc. Life InsuranceYou can make a gift of life insurance to The Arc and claim the premium payments as a tax deduction. You may also make a gift of an existing policy and claim a tax deduction for the cash surrender value. Gifts of Real Estate and other AssetsYour gift of real estate or other capital assets (art, jewelry, antiques, etc.) can be sold for our immediate benefit, or in certain circumstances, given to The Arc for future sale. BequestsConsider making The Arc a part of your will. You can name The Arc as a specific beneficiary, or name us as a remainder beneficiary after other amounts have been paid to other beneficiaries. |
