You Can Make a Difference
Margie’s Haven House relies on the generous support of donations of goods, services and money to provide services to victims of domestic violence.
Kindess and genuine concern is the reason we can continue to offer
survivors of domestic violence vital services like support groups,
advocacy, emergency shelter and crisis intervention.
Many
people who support our mission say they derive great satisfaction from
their generosity and would like to do more. Following are a few ideas
that you might not have considered that may give you some tax
advantages:
Cash
Nothing could be easier than making a gift of cash. It is the most
common gift and the one you probably think of first. All cash donations
up to 50 percent of your adjusted gross income are deductible if you
itemize in the year of contribution. Any excess deductions can be
carried forward for the next five.
Goods and Services
Many of the people we serve at our shelter and in the community are
left with little to nothing. With your donations you can help them
build a new life.
There are numerous possibilities to make in-kind-donations to Margie’s Haven House:
Since our storage space is very limited we can only accept items that
are on our wish list. This wish list changes constantly. Please contact
us at 501-362-6757 or send an email to admin.mhhi@suddenlink.net to learn about our current needs. You can subscribe to our Newsletter where you will find an updated Wish List.
Bequests
Some of our donors give by leaving a charitable gift in a will or a
trust. Bequests are the most popular type of planned gifts. Anything
you leave to a charitable organization will reduce the size of your
taxable estate while helping a great cause. You can leave a specific
bequest of a specified sum of money or even a piece of property. Other
options are to leave a percentage of your estate or a percentage of the
remaining estate to Margie’s Haven House, Inc. after making provisions for family and friends.
In Honorium Giving
Each year, individuals in the community make a gift to Margie's Haven House, Inc.
as a Christmas or Birthday gift. This is a special way to honor someone
who values the services we provide. Please call 501-362-6757
to make arrangements. Should you decide to send a check, please mark
the bottom of the check with your loved one's name and attach a letter
explaining your donation intentions so that we may thank you and the
family of the loved one properly and in a timely manner.
