Ways to Give
Your generosity ensures that older adults and people with disabilities receive trusted, life changing support through Senior Network Services. Whether you’re making a gift today or planning for the future, there are many meaningful ways to create a lasting impact. Our team is here to help you choose the option that feels right for you.
Charitable IRA Rollover (QCD)
If you are 70½ or older, you can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution directly from your IRA to Senior Network Services. A QCD can satisfy all or part of your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) without increasing your taxable income, making it a simple and tax-smart way to give.
Gifts of Securities
Giving appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds is a powerful way to support our mission. By donating securities directly, you may receive a charitable deduction for the full market value while avoiding capital gains tax.
Donor Advised Funds (DAFs)
If you have a Donor Advised Fund, you can recommend a grant to Senior Network Services at any time. DAFs offer flexibility. You receive an immediate tax deduction when you contribute to the fund, and you can support our mission later, with gifts made in your name or anonymously.
How Your Gift Makes a Difference
Your support fuels essential programs such as Information & Assistance, Medicare counseling, housing support, care management, and our Ombudsman services. Together, we help older adults remain informed, independent, and supported.
Gifts of Real Estate or Appreciated Assets
Donating appreciated assets such as real estate, land, rental property, or other valuable holdings, can provide significant tax advantages while strengthening our long term services. These gifts help ensure stability for the seniors who depend on us.
Legacy Gifts (Bequests)
Including Senior Network Services in your will or living trust is a meaningful way to leave a lasting legacy. You can choose to leave:
- A specific dollar amount
- A percentage of your estate
- The remainder of your estate
- A contingent gift, based on conditions you set
- Your planned gift ensures our programs remain strong for generations to come.
Other Meaningful Ways to Give
- Monthly Giving: Provide steady, reliable support throughout the year.
- Tribute or Memorial Gifts: Honor a loved one with a gift that makes a difference.
- Corporate Matching Gifts: Double or even triple your impact. Ask your employer about matching programs.
- In-Kind Contributions: Donations of goods, services, or professional expertise help strengthen our programs and operations.
