The
Donoho School - Ways to Give
Shopping
for Donoho
Do
you shop at stores that donate money
to schools, or participate in other
fundraisers? The students of The Donoho
School will benefit when you do. Check
here for more information and links
to organizations that return a portion
of their profits to The Donoho School…
Gifts
of Cash
The majority of the gifts we receive
at The Donoho School are in the form
of cash, check or credit card. These
contributions are tax-deductible for
those who itemize their returns.
In-Kind-Gifts
Items (computers, musical equipment,
athletic equipment, etc.) and professional
services may be contributed to the
school, dependent on the school's
needs. The Development Office can
help you determine the suitability
of your gift, and, again, you may
receive a tax deduction if you itemize.
Matching
Gifts
Many corporations will match gifts
made by their employees and retirees
to educational institutions. The personnel
office of your company can provide
that information for you as well as
the paperwork required. The Donoho
School will complete the application
process and recognize both donor and
corporation for their gift.
Memorials
and Honorariums
Gifts made in memory or honor of a
family member or friend acknowledge
special relationships or may recognize
a special event. These gifts to the
school are tax deductible.
Securities
A tax deduction is given for the full
market value of gifts of securities
and stocks contributed to the school.
If you hold securities that would
incur a tax on capital gains if sold,
your gift could mean significant savings.
Gifts of securities should also be
considered for establishing a planned
deferred gift to the school.
Bequests
A gift provided for in your will may
be a specific amount, a percentage
of your estate, the residual of the
estate, or a certain item. The amount
is fully deductible in determining
estate and inheritance taxes.
The
Donoho School is grateful for your
consideration of these ways in which
you can support our school. For further
information about these and other
ways of giving , please contact Paige
Faulkner, Director of Institutional
Advancement and Marketing, at (256)
237-5477 or pfaulkner@donohoschool.com.
