Bequests

• Bequests help to secure the future of our mission. Your Will can be a creative vehicle through which you invest in the future of Melmark.

Life Insurance

• One of the simplest ways to make a significant gift is to designate Melmark as the beneficiary of all or a portion of the proceeds of a life insurance policy. You can thereby make a gift that may ultimately be larger than its cost while enjoying favorable tax advantages.

Charitable Gift Annuities

• A charitable gift annuity offers you an opportunity to support Melmark while receiving valuable tax benefits and fixed income payments at above market rates.

Matching Gifts:

• Many employers match charitable donations made by their employees. If you work for a matching gift company, be sure to obtain and complete the necessary form to multiply your gift.

Securities:

• A gift of appreciated securities to Melmark may be the optimal way to provide a significant contribution while realizing tax savings.

The generosity of donors and sponsors makes it possible for Melmark to create innovative programs that significantly enhance the quality of life for the people we serve.
