"There are many ways to
give."
All donations are welcome.
Large, small, one-time, continuous endowments and deferred gifts - all
of these tax-deductible donations work to support the program. All
donors will be given appropriate recognition. For example, the tack
room bears the name of a generous donor. Other facilities are available
for donor recognition in perpetuity.
Here are a few ways to
make your tax-deductible gift:
| Cash |
Gifts
In Kind
|
Deferred
Giving
|
| Usually in the form of
a check, this is the most common form of charitable giving. Some
choose to make a gift as a memorial or to honor a loved one. |
Donations of equipment,
horses, feed, land or other valuables that can be used or sold to support
the program. |
Many people remember
charities in their wills by leaving property,
insurance benefits,
income producing trusts
or a combination of these. Contact the Office of Institutional
Advancement at
(256) 761-3202 if you
have questions about this option. |
Planning
Your Year End Giving
Any time is an ideal time
to make a charitable gift to the MGH Foundation. So as you plan your
year-end giving, consider one of our charitable accounts available through
the MGH Foundation.
Endowments
– donors may wish to establish an endowment or add to an existing
endowment. Endowment funds are a body of money, the principle of
which is not used. Only the earnings each year from investing these
funds is spent. This means your gift keeps giving continuously without
ever exhausting the principle! What’s more any pledge to the endowment
fund of $10,000 or more entitles the donor to have a separate endowment
fund named after either the donor or a loved one.
Currently our endowment
fund is over the $500,000.00 mark with a goal of $2 million. For
more information call Tim Greene at 256-761-3364 or Jessica Edmiston at
256-761-3470.
Capital
Fund – to ensure resources to maintain, expand, restore or replace
existing structures or equipment. General operating expenses are
on the rise as our program expands and our facilities age. Donors
are encouraged to make tax-deductible contributions in support of any of
these funds.
Gifts-In-Kind
- MGH can always use items as well as monetary donations.
Tack, equipment, copy paper, brooms…anything equestrian or office related
is welcome, even horses in need of a good home (horses must be sound and
healthy and will be on a 90 day trial basis before being accepted into
our program). If we can use it, it will be tax deductible.
Rider
& Horse Sponsorships - Through our Adopt-A-Rider/ Horse sponsorship,
donors can sponsor one or more students per year, or forever through multiple
giving options.
With a gift of $1,000.00
per year, you can sponsor a horse or a rider. Opportunities are also available
to endow a rider forever by creating a named sponsorship through a planned
gift to MGH.
When you adopt a rider,
you are helping him or her grow stronger in his or her skills and confidence.
The adoption of a horse helps us to pay for veterinary services, Ferrier
services, feed and any other expenses that may arise. We promise complete
satisfaction!
