Here are four more specific ways you can bring hope and healing to the world’s forgotten poor:
Shared value through corporate support
Corporations are vital partners to the ongoing work and financial health of Mercy Ships. Opportunities for shared value include:
- Gifts-in-kind
- Financial partnerships
- Co-branding
- Workplace giving programs
- Encouraging volunteerism
Enhance contributions through workplace giving
Share your passion for Mercy Ships where you work.
- Check with your company about contributing through its matching-gift program, which could double or triple your gift to Mercy Ships.
Create a fundraiser with colleagues – a fun, easy way to make a big difference.
Realize tax benefits through planned giving
Planned-giving programs provide tax benefits to you, your heirs and estate while showing mercy to the world’s forgotten poor. These programs ensure that the wealth you’ve sacrificed and worked hard for will go to the people and causes you care about the most.
Save taxes by donating appreciated assets
Stocks, bonds, real estate all can be donated to Mercy Ships and may help you save taxes while giving wisely from your abundance to serve the poorest of the poor.
