- Memorial Gift: A gift made in memory of a family member, friend, colleague.
- Honor/Tribute Gift: A gift made in honor of a special occasion (anniversary, promotion, birthday, etc.), or to pay tribute to an individual.
- A Planned Gift : A planned gift is a future gift and can be made in a number of ways:
- Bequest: Remember CranstonArc in your will
- Charitable Gift Annuity: Assets are transferred now to CranstonArc. You, the donor, receive an immediate tax benefit and the CranstonArc agrees to pay you a fixed amount of income for the rest of your life. Funds left in the fund upon your passing will be used by the CranstonArc in the manner which you intended.
- Charitable Remainder Trust: Assets are transferred now into a trust. The trust provides income payments annually to you and/or a named beneficiary for life or some fixed period of time. Upon your death, the remainder of the trust is transferred to the CranstonArc. A retirement plan can be used to set up a Charitable Remainder Trust
- Insurance Policy: One of the easiest ways to provide for a future gift to CranstonArc. CranstonArc is the named beneficiary on the policy.
- Special Events: A great way to have fun, meet new people, and support children and adults with development disabilities.
- Volunteer: Time and talent is as important as Treasure when supporting a non-profit organization. Consider serving on a committee to help raise money and awareness for our vulnerable population.
