Other Ways to Give
Make a Gift in Memorial or Tribute
Gifts in Memorial or Gifts In Tribute are a powerful way to honor or remember a loved one, friend, or colleague by supporting Tedy’s Team’s mission. Your meaningful gift allows Tedy’s Team to provide funds for live-saving research, advocacy, education, awareness and financial assistance for survivors and caregivers.
Tax-Efficient Gifts
You can make an impact on Tedy’s Team’s mission through these easy and tax-efficient giving options:
- Donor Advised Funds: Give through your donor advised fund to maximize your impact in the fight against stroke and heart disease. Your fund sponsor handles all record-keeping, disbursements, and tax receipts.
- Individual Retirement Account (IRA): If you or a family member are 70½ or older with an IRA, you can transfer a gift directly without incurring tax consequences.
- Life Income Gifts: Earn income for yourself or beneficiaries when you create a Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA) or Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) to benefit Tedy’s Team.
- Stock/Securities: Make a gift of stock or securities to support Tedy’s Team’s mission and you can avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation of your stock.
You can also designate Tedy’s Team as a full or partial beneficiary of your retirement, bank, or investment accounts. Simply contact your plan administrator to request a beneficiary designation form.
Please contact Elizabeth Perry Tirrell at elizabeth@tedysteam.org for more information, or to let us know if you have recently made one of these gifts.
