Regular Giving:
Making regular, monthly
donations is a great way of sustaining our programs
year-round. Just choose an amount and send us a
check or have us automatically deduct it from your
credit card. Please call (718) 399-0200 or
e-mail us for a Regular Giving Form.
Matching Gifts:
Thousands of employers
match contributions of their staff, sometimes even
doubling or tripling them. Ask your HR manager for
the form, send it in, and we will do the rest!
Special Events:
Attending our special
events is a great way of sharing your support of
Diaspora with fellow donors, community members,
staff, and friends. You can also serve on planning,
steering, and host committees for our events.
Upcoming special events.
Tribute Gifts:
Tribute gifts are a
great way of honoring someone or marking a special
time in life, be it a birthday, anniversary, or a
remembrance. Simply send us your contribution and
specify the name and address of the person honored
and we will send them a special letter notifying
them of the gift.
Sponsorships/Corporate Giving:
Another great way of
maximizing your support is to involve your company.
Many companies sponsor events, buy tables, and offer
discounts for organizations their employees believe
in. Introduce us to your employer.
Planned Giving:
There are a variety of ways
to structure a planned gift to the Diaspora Community
Services that can help you to minimize both your
current taxes and your estate taxes. Approaches to Planned
Giving may include bequests, a retirement plan gift whereby
Diaspora Community Services is designated as the final beneficiary
of your retirement or pension funds, a gift of an existing
life insurance policy or the purchase of a new life insurance
policy designating Diaspora Community Services as the beneficiary,
or a current gift of cash or appreciated securities. To
find out which approach best meets your needs, please consult
with your attorney.
