SUPPORT JOSLYN

Joslyn is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and although it is supported by local businesses, grants, fundraising and the Joslyn Endowment Fund, it is the ongoing support from our members and other concerned individuals that allows Joslyn to continue to offer the quality programs and services that we do.

You can make a significant difference at Joslyn by contributing to: Joslyn's general fund for immediate use, or to the Joslyn Endowment Fund used to sustain future funding and long-term programming.

The following are 10 ways you can support the Joslyn Senior Center and/or its Endowment Fund:

• Membership. Your membership dues of only $30 a year make a significant contribution to our programming and services.

• Individual/General Donations. You tax-deductable gift of $25, $50, $100 or however much you can give immediately supports the Center and is the most common and easiest way for you to give.

• Tributes. Honor a departed loved one or a special occasion with a tribute in their name or memory.

• Partnerships/Sponsorships. Encourage your business or organization to partner with or sponsor the Center, thereby increasing the businesses exposure to our members and helping to secure long-lasting, supportive relationships.

• Family Support. Encourage your friends and family to join you in supporting Joslyn in any of the ways mentioned above.

• Appreciated Assets. Your donation of shares of stock or mutual funds especially if they have risen in value; are a tax deduction without the penalty of capital gains. The profits from your sold asset are the gift that you can claim.

• Living Will/Trust. Remember Joslyn in your will or trust. Contributions can be cash, stocks, personal property or other assets.

• Life Insurance / Savings Account / Retirement Plans. Include the Center as a beneficiary of your life insurance (or other) plan. Your minimal premium payments allows the Center to benefit from the full future value of you policy.

• Charitable Trusts. This is a way to receive current tax benefits while retaining income for your life time.

• Real Estate. Donate any real estate holdings � such as a primary residence, second home, rental property or land � to the Center. The value of the property will then continue to support the Center.
