Ways to Give
Your tax-deductible support is important to help fulfill Shadybrook’s mission.
We are committed to making our services accessible to anyone seeking
to enhance their life and realize their human potential,
regardless of background or financial status.
Our programs and scholarships are underwritten by the generous support of endowments and gifts.
We ask you to put your caring into action and stretch out your heart and hand. Here are some of the ways you can make a gift to Shadybrook:
Become a Member
American Express isn’t the only one who can claim that “membership has its privileges.” A membership donation is the simplest form of gift to make, and one with so many rich rewards.
We invite you to JOIN Shadybrook today.
Will your employer match your gift to Shadybrook?
Many people who make charitable donations are unaware that their gift may be eligible for matching funds from their employer. Companies often match employee gifts to nonprofit organizations.
Bequest
A bequest is a provision in your will naming Shadybrook as a recipient of a part of your estate. It is flexible and easy. A bequest may be for a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or it may take the form of a trust. The taxable amount of your estate is reduced by the value of any charitable bequests.
Retirement Funds
Naming Shadybrook as a beneficiary of all or part of an IRA or qualified retirement plan could achieve both estate and income tax savings. The gift funds escape estate tax, leaving for your heirs other assets, which are not subject to additional income taxes. Shadybrook, as a not-for-profit organization, will not pay income tax and your heirs will receive their share of your estate without the burden of income taxes.
Volunteer
Your support, whether a donation of funds, skills, or service is deeply appreciated. Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Shadybrook! Together, we can be a powerful force for positive change.
Volunteers are needed for our ongoing support teams:
– Member Nurture and Growth Team
– Social Media and Marketing Team
– FUNdraising Team
Our Program Planning Team is pretty full, but if that’s where your passion lies, we’ll make room.
And if you’re looking for a leadership opportunity, consider serving on Shadybrook’s Board of Trustees!
To discuss how you can contribute, have fun, and make a difference, please contact our Membership & Volunteer Coordinator, Michelle Hudson, at michelle@shadybrook.org, or (440) 459 - 2296.
