Cash

This is the most simple and common way to make a gift. Cash donations are deductible if you itemize in the year of contribution. We hope that you consider NYFS in your year-end contribution plan.

Upright Gift of Real Estate

You can donate to NYFS a property that is not mortgaged, has appreciated in value, and you no longer need to use. You can deduct the fair market value of your gift and avoid all capital gains taxes. Plus this allows you to remove that asset from your taxable estate.

Donate Stocks

Donating appreciated stock can be a cost-effective way to make a gift to NYFS. If you itemize on your tax return, you will receive a charitable deduction for the fair market value of your stock and will not pay capital gains on the appreciated value, if you have owned the stock longer than one year. To donate a stock, please call our Development Office at 651-379-3421. 

Memorial & Honorary Gifts

If you have a family member or a friend whose life has been touched by NYFS, we hope you'll consider making a gift to us in honor of that person.
