Ask Your Employer to Match Your Gift

Many employers match dollar for dollar the charitable gifts their employees make; some will double or even triple match an employee’s donation, which is a terrific way to maximize your ability to contribute to Redemption House.

Check with your employer to determine if they participate in a matching gift program.

A donor-advised fund is a type of charitable savings account. When you fund the account, you receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants to an eligible charity, such as Redemption House, over time. The funds are invested for tax-free growth. You can recommend a grant to Redemption House today, or on a recurring basis (monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually), and designate it towards any of our programs.

You may also consider naming Redemption House as a beneficiary of your account, so your gift continues to support our mission after your lifetime.

Donor Advised Fund (DAF)

Many companies offer an employee giving program in their workplace, and will match dollar-for-dollar the charitable gifts their employees make – some will double- or even triple-match an employee’s donation, which is a terrific way to maximize your ability to contribute to Redemption House.

To find out if your company has a program and how to support Redemption House, please contact your Human Resources department.

Payroll Deductions

When you donate appreciated securities or mutual funds that you have held for more than one year to an eligible charity, you can reduce or even eliminate federal capital gains taxes on the transfer. You may also be able to declare a federal income tax charitable deduction based on the fair market value of the securities at the time of the transfer. Making a gift of securities to support the Redemption House mission is as easy as instructing your broker to transfer the shares. Please contact us if you plan to donate.
