Ways to Give
Aside from making a donation, there are a number of ways for individuals, families and organizations to make philanthropic gifts to UAAM. Your donations provide necessary operating support that allows us to continue our mission.
Individuals & Families
Tribute Gift
Tribute gifts are a thoughtful way to honor or remember a loved one, or show gratitude for a special achievement in your or someone else’s life. A memorial gift (in memory of) is a meaningful way to remember a loved one who has passed away by making a contribution in his or her memory.
Planned Giving
By leaving a planned gift, you will support our work for generations to come without affect your cash flow during your lifetime. A properly drafted will or bequest can minimize estate costs and taxes, while ensuring your property is managed in the way you want. If you already have a will or living trust, you can amend it to include a bequest to UAAM with a simple codicil to make the gift in a cost-effective manner.
Stock Gifts
You can transfer publicly traded securities that you have owned for more than one year to UAAM. We sell the securities and apply to proceeds as you designate. You claim an income tax charitable deduction based on the fair market value of the securities and also avoid capital gains tax on the securities’ appreciation.
Life Insurance
You can designate UAAM as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy. When the time comes, UAAM receives the proceeds and the policy proceeds distributed to UAAM will be tax exempt from estate tax.
Charitable IRA Rollover
You can designate UAAM as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy. When the time comes, UAAM receives the proceeds and the policy proceeds distributed to UAAM will be tax exempt from estate tax.
Wishlist
Give a gift to us directly off of our wish list.
Companies & Employees
Matching Gifts
Employee matching gift programs allow eligible donors to make a nonprofit donation and have their place of work double the gift! Some company’s even match gifts from spouses and retirees. Check with your employer to see if they will match your donation.
