More Ways to Give
Memorial & Tribute Gifts
Some of the most meaningful gifts we receive are those given in the memory of a loved one. When someone has been affected by suicide we would like to help you honor and celebrate their life.
All of our memorial and tribute gives are acknowledge with a letter to the person you designate.
Stock
Publicly traded securities are fantastic assets to give. They are easily valued and easily transferred. Donating appreciated securities before they are sold can typically result in a tax advantage.
In order to properly receipt and acknowledge you for your donation, please make sure to contact our office with your intentions before you transfer. For more information on donating stock, mutual funds, bonds or other securities please contact Jason Eckert at donate@robbies-hope.com.
