Special Events/Sponsorship
The Mental Health Association conducts several events throughout the year. Volunteers and sponsors ensure that the event will be a success.
Gifts of Time
Gifts of time are very valuable to the Mental Health Association. Many programs would not be possible without the help of volunteers.
Gifts of Cash
Outright gifts of cash are always appreciated whether it is a one-time gift or you would prefer to be invoiced semi-annually or quarterly.
Gifts of Stock/Bonds/Mutual Funds
Gifts of stocks or bonds can provide income tax deduction opportunities, especially in the area of capital gains tax. Your local broker or legal expert can help you conduct this simple transaction.
Gifts of Property
Gifts of property can provide you with a significant tax deduction. Gifts of property include real estate, residence and/or personal property. Please consult a tax advisor or legal expert to learn about the immediate tax benefits.
Gifts of Insurance
Gifts of insurance are often overlooked, but naming the Mental Health Association as a beneficiary is a unique way to support us.
Honorary Gifts
Donations to the Mental Health Association may be the most appropriate way to celebrate a special occasion such as birthdays, wedding anniversaries, graduation or retirement recognition. They can also honor the accomplishments of someone close to you. Please consider making this meaningful gift.
Matching Gifts
Thousands of companies - small and large - have Matching Gift Programs that double or even triple individual, tax-deductible donations made by employees. These programs are an easy way to maximize the benefit of your generous donation.
Memorials
The death of a friend or family member is a time of grief, remembrance and recognition. Our organization can help you establish a memorial fund honoring your loved one. In appreciation of establishing a memorial with MHANRV, we will provide memorial cards (upon request) and a list of donors to ensure they are properly thanked.
United Way of Montgomery, Radford, and Floyd
Gifts to the United Way of Montgomery, Radford, and Floyd help the Mental Health Association as one of its partner agencies. To pledge, call 381-2607 or go to their website: www.UnitedWayNRV.org.
