Ways to Give

Individual Donations

A gift of cash is of immediate benefit to us, and is the most direct way to give. At this unique and important stage in our growth, a fully deductible cash gift allows the organization to use the funds immediately. Choose to donate online, by mail, or by phone.

The President's Circle

A membership program that recognizes individual donors and provides the organization with much needed current-use funds. Membership includes personal access to Dr. Robert N. Butler, our President & CEO. Learn more

Securities

A gift of long-term, appreciated securities can provide a double tax benefit to donors — a current income tax deduction and avoidance of capital gain taxes.

Matching Corporate Gifts

Many corporations match gifts from their employees to charitable not-for-profit organizations like the ILC-USA, sometimes at 2:1 ratios or better. Please contact the human resources office of your employer for a matching gift form.

Life Income Gifts and Bequests

There are significant tax advantages to making a bequest to the ILC-USA as part of your estate plan. Life income gifts — such as charitable remainder trusts and charitable gift annuities — also offer substantial tax savings while benefiting you and the ILC-USA during your lifetime. You may make a life income gift by irrevocably transferring securities, money, or other property.

Other Assets

Gifts of real estate, closely held stock, and other assets can also be used to make gifts.

Federal Employee Contributions

For federal government employees and members of the U.S. military, we participate in the largest national workplace giving campaign — the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) . Learn more
