Donate your stock, securities or real estate to support our mission while providing you with potential tax benefits.

Retirement Assets:
Donating part or all of your unused retirement assets such as a gift from your IRA (70.5 minimum distribution), 401(k), 403(b), pension or other tax-deferred plan is an excellent way to make a gift to the Y.
