Your Support Matters.

• Annual Gift
  Foster the Village (FTV) relies 100% on support from the community to carry out its mission. You can join our Village with an annual contribution. It takes an extra special village to raise a child in foster care!
• Matching Gifts
  Many employers offer matching gifts programs to encourage their employees to support 501c3 charitable organizations. You can double your impact in the community by giving this way. Check with your employer’s Human Resources department to see if your company matches donations from employees or retirees.
• Monthly Giving
  Monthly giving is an easy, convenient and affordable way to support our most vulnerable children throughout the year. Monthly support provides FTV with dependable funding allowing us to focus on our services and less time on future appeals. Donors may find satisfaction in knowing that they are helping to maintain our services and positive impact each and every day of the year.
• Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)
  This is a tax-saving way to support FTV if you are 70 ½ or older. You can give up to $100,000 from your IRA to a qualified charitable organization like FTV.
• Gifts of Stock
  Gifts of appreciated securities may provide significant tax benefits. FTV maintains a brokerage account to make this an easy way to support our mission.
• Donor Advised Funds
  Foster the Village accepts gifts from Donor Advised Funds and you make the granting decisions.
• Legacy Giving
  Every child in foster care has a story. We all do. What do you want your story or legacy to be? You can brighten the lives of children and families in foster care for many years to come with a legacy gift to Foster the Village. YOU can change the trajectory of a child’s story for the better.

Consult with your financial planner, attorney or estate planner to learn how you can make a planned gift to Foster the Village. Or, contact us at fosterthevillage@gmail.com for more information.
