Annual Gifts
The USABA relies on strong annual support from our many friends to help us with day-to-day operating costs. Unrestricted gifts provides us with the flexibility to enhance existing programs, develop new services, and continue to succeed as a leader in sports experiences for the blind and visually impaired.
Matching Gifts
Your gift can be doubled, or even tripled, if you or your spouse work for a company with a matching gift program. All you need to do is obtain a matching gift form from your human resources department, fill it out, and mail it to the USABA, 33 N. Institute St., Colorado Springs, CO.
In-kind Donations
Products or services, which have the effect of reducing our operating costs, are greatly appreciated.
Charitable Bequests
A charitable bequest can be tailored to almost any set of circumstances, and it provides an unlimited deduction for estate tax purposes. Bequests also provide a flexible planning tool for meeting the needs of loved one and making choices that fulfill personal wishes. Today, bequests can take many forms. In the last will and testament, you may stipulate a specific cash donation, or state a percent of your gross assets.
Stocks or Securities
Gifts of appreciated stock enable you to maximize your philanthropic impact while avoiding capital gains taxes.
Life Insurance
A gift of a life insurance policy allows you to make a major gift for a modest cost. Many donors like to use insurance gifts to receive a current tax deduction while disposing of an old policy that is no longer needed.
