THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS SUSTAIN GRIEF SUPPORT SERVICES
Support the rapidly growing needs of local grievers by giving to protect our grief support services. We realize that it may be challenging to make a financial donation during these uncertain economic climate. Because so many of us have been impacted by unemployment, the stock markets, or other financial challenges, we want to remind you that there are many ways to give.
Every dollar you donate today directly helps grieving children, teens and adults find understanding, support, and connection in a safe, warm and nurturing environment.
If you’re not able to give $100 at this time, make a monthly pledge of at least $10 a month. We have the ability to do an automatic monthly deduction from an account of your choosing.
Donate in “Honor” or “In Memory” of someone by making a gift in their name. Acknowledgment cards or emails can be sent notifying an individual of your contribution.
Under The CARES Act, donors may deduct 100% of cash contributions to most public charities, and may have the advantage of making a distribution to OUR HOUSE from their 2020 IRA distribution if age 71 ½ or older.
If you can’t give now, but want to make a meaningful and enduring gift to support OUR HOUSE in the future, consider us in your estate plan with a bequest, a life insurance policy or a gift of appreciated assets through your will.
Start or join a community foundation or other wealth management established fund, and get a tax deduction when the fund is initially set up, while retaining advisory privileges over how your money is distributed to OUR HOUSE.
Leave a footprint at OUR HOUSE by purchasing a brick in honor or in memory of someone. Choose from two available brick size, and add your own personalized messages according to available character count.
Facebook encourages members to fundraise on their birthday and other gift-giving holidays. Personal fundraising efforts are also available on Facebook. Please consider benefitting OUR HOUSE on Facebook.
To address the grief crisis in New York City, we are focused on raising $5 million to enable our doors to open in 2025 and respond to the overwhelming demand for services.
