We Honor Your Reasons for Giving

• You can make a gift simply because you feel moved to help the community today.
• You can make an Honorary Gift – that is, a gift in honor of someone’s birthday, wedding, anniversary or other important milestone. If you do, we will send a personalized letter to that individual that informs them of your generosity. Unless you request otherwise, we keep the amount of your gift confidential.
• You can make a Memorial Gift – that is, a gift in memory of a loved one. At your request, we will send a personalized letter to that individual’s family members or friends, explaining that a thoughtful gift has been made to a fund at our foundation in memory of the loved one. The amount of the contribution will be kept confidential.

We Have Many Funds To Offer

• You can make a donation to any of the funds established by our donors. You’ll find a directory of Our Funds
