Golden
Donations, Sponsorships & Bequests
There are many ways you can help support our cancer treatment and research fundraising
efforts.
Gift-Giving Programs
We have some wonderful ways to donate in which gifts can be received in
return. These gifts include books, Golden plush pups, memorial and celebration
cards, film credit acknowledgments, and story webpages.
Just click here to learn
more.
General Cash Contributions Cash donations are certainly the most direct and immediately beneficial way
of contributing to the Foundation. They can be made below online or via check by
clicking here.
If you would like to have your contribution go to a specific area,
such as for research in comparative oncology or for our cancer treatment grants
for working dogs, please provide a note to that effect.
Gifts in Kind Gifts of this
nature include items that can be used in our operation or for
fundraising purposes. For example, we can place donated items on
Ebay or use them in a gift-gifting donation program.
Operational
costs include future travel-related costs (airfare, hotel, etc.)
when we take our completed Gotta Dance! Documentary Film on the road
to related trade shows and dog events. A letter from the Foundation
will be provided that details your donation. However, the tax deductible value is
always determined by the donor.
Vehicle Donations
Are
you a candidate for making a Vehicle Donation? You are entitled to an itemized
deduction of the “Fair Market Value” of any donated vehicle. (The “fair market
value” is the full retail price less any necessary repairs.)
Do you have an
extra, unwanted vehicle that can be donated? If you are buying a new car, your
old car may be worth more as a donation than a trade-in because you get a
itemized tax deduction based on the retail value of your vehicle. If your car
still has value (it runs or only needs simple repairs), then you can get a
significant tax saving by donating it.
Our service will arrange pick up of your vehicle. You will be sent a Tax
Donation Receipt for your records after the pickup. This is just a receipt. You
will have to determine the “fair market value” of your donation for your
itemized deduction. Learn about when & how to donate your vehicle, tax
information, and more
by clicking here.
Matching Gifts Many
companies offer a matching gift program that will increase the value of
your contribution. If your employer offers a matching gift program, they
will usually match a gift made to any 501(c)(3) nonprofit
organization.
Once an initial gift has been made, many companies
will then include the nonprofit on a list of eligible charitable
organizations for employees to select from.
Some companies even offer matching gift programs for retirees and employee
spouses. Just check with your benefits or personnel office to obtain
the appropriate information.
Sponsorships You may be
able to help if you believe a
friend or business in your area is interested in providing a donation or
sponsorship. Sponsors would benefit from unprecedented visibility, as our site
is frequented daily by thousands of companion animal lovers. And with the site
comprised of multiple sections over 1,000+ pages, there
would be ample avenues for increased exposure. Click here to contact us for
further information.
Specific, Contingent & Residual Bequests You can
designate a specific dollar amount, a specific property (such as a
residence or land), or a percentage of your estate to the Land of
PureGold Foundation.
You can
also indicate that our foundation receive
all or a portion of your estate only under certain circumstances such as there
being no surviving spouse or children.
Finally, after your estate pays all
debts, taxes, specific bequests, and expenses, the remaining amount (or a
portion of it) could be given to the Land of PureGold Foundation.
