Ways to give

Unrestricted giving

You can donate TODAY to help friends and family in your community when they need the care the most! Unrestricted gifts are impactful and can be made in any of the following ways. You may also direct your gift to any of the restricted funds listed under the Programs tab.

Honor & memorial giving

Your honorariums are a great way to pay tribute to someone special. You can acknowledge their courage, celebrate a birthday, or an important milestone. Memorials can help celebrate the wonderful memory of a loved one. A personalized notification of your gift is sent to all the respective parties and gift amounts are not shared.

Monetary & recurring gifts

Your cash or online donations immediately improve the lives of friends, family and neighbors in our community and throughout our region. Recurring gifts also help by saving staff time and allow us to anticipate our areas of greatest need throughout the year.

Annual giving

Your giving to the annual campaign strengthens and sustains our programs. These unrestricted gifts provide the resources needed to undertake new initiatives and maintain our existing programs.

Employee giving

All staff and physicians can participate by making a one time or recurring gift and LCMC Health employees can even sign up for payroll deduction. Your donations support vital Foundation program and services that impact you daily.

Matching gifts

Many companies offer matching gift programs. Most of these programs match contributions dollar for dollar and some will even double or triple the amount of your gift! Find out if your company will match gifts. Our EIN# is 72-1251751.

Whether you would like to put your donation to work today or benefit us after your lifetime, you can find a charitable plan that lets you provide for your family and support our mission.

Stocks & securities

Your stock gift can benefit everyone involved. Those in need receive the support and you can avoid or lessen the impact of certain taxes. To complete a transfer of stock please contact our team for details.

Online & community fundraising

You can raise donations on Facebook or other crowdfunding options. Host a dine out event or give a percentage of sales for a service/product. You can set up a dedicated page to share our story and rally around a fundraising goal. Be creative and contact us with details.

Amazon

You can shop at www.smile.amazon.com and support our mission! AmazonSmile is the same Amazon you know. Amazon will donate 0.5% of the price of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases to the Foundation.

RESTRICTED GIVING FUNDS

Your tax-deductible gift will help bring our life-changing programs to more in our community! To maximize funding, when support received is over and above the budget of the solicited purpose or the funding need is no longer warranted, the Spirit of Charity reserves the right to utilize funding towards the Foundation area of greatest need.
