Donor-Advised Funds:

If you have a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) at Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable or BNY Mellon, please consider recommending a grant to The ILC.
1. Select the sponsoring organization from the “Donate now from” menu.
2. Enter the dollar amount.
3. Click the “NEXT” button to proceed to your DAF provider website to process your request.
You can also direct your DAF sponsoring organization to issue a check payable to The ILC.

IRA Rollover Gifts:

American taxpayers ages 70.5 and older may donate up to $100,000 from their IRAs each year without having to treat the withdrawals as taxable income.

Honorary / Memorial Gifts:

Commemorate a milestone or a special occasion, or honor someone’s memory with a truly meaningful gift. Tell us about your honoree when you send your gift, or use the special purpose option when you give online.

Non-Cash Financial Gifts:

Donate stock, assign The ILC as a beneficiary on insurance policies or investment instruments, remember The ILC in your will, etc.

Employer Matching:

Matching gifts show that your company cares about causes that are important to you and fellow employees. Your employer will enjoy tax benefits, and together you will be helping to improve lives. Contact your Human Resources Office for donation matching information.  If your company does not currently match employee donations, consider asking them to do so.

In-Kind Contributions:

This type of charitable donation can be made by individuals or organizations. These kinds of donations can include office supplies, silent auction items, professional services and more.

The Immigrant Learning Center hosts two fundraising events each year: the Annual Golf Classic in the spring and the Barry M. Portnoy Immigrant Entrepreneur Awards in the fall.
