T
here are several ways to make a difference
to families in need in Boulder and Broomfield Counties. All gifts
help meet basic needs, such as rent assistance, emergency shelter,
transitional housing, help with utility bills, and food for people
in your community.
Financial Gifts
Most gifts to EFAA come in the form of checks. If you would like
to send a check to EFAA, please
send it to: Emergency Family Assistance, 900 Arapahoe Ave., Boulder,
CO 80302.
Gifts of stock, stock options,
life insurance or other assets
often offer tax advantages to a donor. If you are considering this
type of gift, you should consult with your legal or tax advisor
about tax related issues prior to making your stock
donation.
A pledge
program using your credit card or electronic funds transfer
(EFT) is a very simple way to support EFAA on a routine basis. Through
this giving mechanism a fixed amount is gifted from your bank account
to EFAA on a schedule established by you.
A deferred gift to EFAA as part of your estate plan will leave
a lasting legacy in support of EFAA's work. Unless otherwise
restricted by the donor, estate gifts will be used to build an endowment
for EFAA.
If you would like more information about any of these gifting mechanisms,
please contact Terry Benjamin, Executive Director, at 303-951-7665
or terry@efaa.org, or ,
call our Developement Director at 303-951-7676.
Wonderful Volunteering Opportunities
EFAA has a well developed volunteer program offering many rewarding
volunteer opportunities. Volunteers
repeatedly tell us how much they learned about a part of the community
they had very little awareness of, and how they are welcomed, supported,
and feel that they make a critical difference. Please contact our
Volunteer Coordinator at 303-951-7663 or volunteercoordinator@efaa.org
Non-Financial or In-Kind Giving
During the course of our work, EFAA receives and distributes a great number of in-kind gifts that are of tremendous benefit to people asking
for help. The most useful in-kind gifts
range from food and personal items to serviceable furniture.
