WAYS TO GIVE
THE GIFT OF MAKING A DIFFERENCE
You can be an important part of the continuing mission of MNITF and helping to save and improve the lives of so many. Financial giving to MNITF creates unique opportunities for us to devote necessary resources to further advancing research and education. Below is a list of ways that you, your family, and your friends can help keep the flame of hope alive for potential transplant recipients.
DIRECTED GIVING
With a planned giving strategy, you can earmark your contribution for any area of MNITF's work that you choose, including the Research Grant Program and Education projects.
LIFE INSURANCE GIFTS
The most common type of life income gifts are charitable gift annuities and charitable remainder trusts.
GIFT OF CASH
This is the simplest and most common type of support. You can make a one-time gift, monthly payments, or pledge to donate over a one- to five-year period.
LIFE INSURANCE
Donating a no longer needed policy entitles you to an immediate tax deduction for the policy's current cash value. This applies to whole life and not term life insurance policies.
MEMORIAL OR HONORARIUM GIFTS
This is a gift made in memory of, or in honor of, a loved one. A notification of your gift, with the amount undisclosed, is sent to the recipient indicated.
BEQUESTS
You can provide a donor's estate with a charitable deduction to offset federal taxes.
AMAZON SMILE
The Amazon Smile program allows you to donate 0.5% of all of your purchases on Amazon to MNITF. Go to smile.amazon.com, sign in with your account, and then search for National Institute of Transplantation Foundation as your charitable organization.
THE MNITF website allows you to donate with a credit card by clicking on the donate icon ( ) at the bottom of every page. If you would like to discuss giving, please contact Nicole Mendez, Executive Director, at (424) 358-4450 or email at Nicole@MNITF.org.
