Tribute Gifts
Gifts made in honor or memory of loved ones can be especially meaningful. What better way to say, “I am thinking of you” or “Congratulations” to those you hold dear than with a gift to The Crayon Initiative in their name or the name of someone they love.
In Honor of...
Whether it is a holiday, birthday, or other special day, honor a special someone, or celebrate a special occasion in this meaningful way. Your contribution will be acknowledged with a card to the person being honored to let them know of your gift.
In Memory of...
A gift made "In Memory of" is a meaningful way to pay tribute to a colleague or friend and support the mission of The Crayon Initiative in their name. Your contribution will be acknowledged with a card to the family member or person you direct us to, to let them know of your memorial gift.
Gift of Stock and Securities
You can make a gift of appreciated stocks or securities via a direct transfer to our brokerage account. Your charitable deduction is equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date of transfer, and you avoid owing the capital gains tax on any increase in the current value over the original cost of the stock. Contact a member of our Development Team to assist you with your gift.
Bequest
Planned gifts can take on many forms depending on your financial and philanthropic goals. Gifts can be made while you are living or through your estate. Planned gifts include bequests, charitable trusts, gifts of retirement plan assets, gifts of life insurance policies, and gifts of tangible personal property. We would be pleased to work with you and your advisors to structure a gift that best fulfills your charitable goals. It’s never too soon to be intentional about the legacy you will leave.
