How to Donate
Saint Vincent dePaul is incorporated in the State of Ohio and is a non
profit organization 501 (c) (3) under federal tax code.
Nearly all donations we receive are used directly to help others in need.
We have accepted and client families have benefited from a number of
types of donations:
•Cash
donations (checks) may be made payable to Saint Vincent dePaul –
Fostoria.
•Donations
of Stocks and Bonds are possible as we have a relationship with Edward
Jones in Fostoria. At the date of
transfer you will be notified of the amount of your gift which is full tax
deductible (no capital gains or income tax).
•Donations
of other assets and items are accepted.
Some items will go directly to assist client families with their needs.
Other items will be sold and the proceeds will be used to help
fund the mission of helping others.
Some of the large gifts have been houses, pianos, and
automobiles. The best way to begin is to talk with a member and discuss
the gift you have in mind. Pickup
for furniture and household items can be arranged.
•Donations
through a trust or life insurance will continue to insure that the
mission work will continue in the future.
Over the years our members have
gained experience in many types of gifts and have worked with attorneys,
real estate and financial people who can assist us and you.
