We can't do this without you!! We need help from everyone everywhere!! No donation is too small!!
Did you know that one in every 23,000 children are involved in a vehicle accident, but one in every 166 is diagnosed with autism (www.autismspeaks.org)? Autism can be seen in almost every neighborhood in America today. One in five Americans have a disability. One in six children have a disability. Eight out of ten marriages fall apart when a disability in a child is diagnosed. 85% of people with disabilities do not participate in any church activities (www.keyministry.org). We need to work together to support these families and individuals with special needs. We have a variety of ways to donate. You can donate your time and talents ~ please look under volunteer opportunities. You can donate personally as well as a representative from businesses and corporations. All monetary donations are tax
deductible!! We can accept donations via paypal or through the mail. We have a variety of ways for personal donating.
Tribute Gifts: Contributions to IHIDS can be made in memory of a loved one or in honor of a birthday, anniversary, or special occasion of a family member or friend. If your gift is a tribute to someone, please include a note telling us the name of the person you wish to notify along with his or her address.
Planned Giving: Give a lifetime of memories. Become a partner with us in helping these precious families and their loved ones with special needs through a "planned gift" such as:
• Bequests through Wills
• Charitable Remainder and Lead Trusts
• Cash, Securities, and Real Estate
You can become a "partner" through annual donations for ongoing programs, gifts for specific capital projects. All proceeds from your planned gift will go to protect the mission of this program, its services and future. Estate planning is a thoughtful process. Be pro-active. You decide how your assets will be distributed. One of the most rewarding benefits derived from a planned gift to IHIDS is knowing the legacy you leave will be enjoyed by so many.
