You Could Save a Species with What’s in Your Attic

The Wolf Center understands that you would like to give as much as possible to all of your favorite charities and outreaches. We would like to introduce some unconventional ideas to you that will help you make the most impact in your giving. While cash donations are critical, there are other ideas that can also have tremendous impact.

Relics and Artifacts hidden away for safe-keeping. Those items that are too precious to drop off at The Salvation Army or Goodwill and have too much sentimental value to simply give away to our children or friends. The items in our attics.

One productive method of giving to your favorite charity or outreach is to donate that item to the organization in exchange for a “Gift in Kind” receipt. This receipt recognizes the donation of an item that you determine the marketable value for and the charity can choose to put into use, use in an auction, or sell the item through an online auction. Items that may be sitting in your attic are possibly only accruing dust but with a Gift in Kind, you can add value to your existing commitment.

For more information on how to donate Gifts in Kind, contact GIK@WolfCenter.org. We’ll contact you to fully inform you about the benefits of giving generously. At the Wolf Center, we’re committed to serving you and the Species.

Please consult your tax specialist for specific limitations.
