Generous Giving to MNIT
There is no greater mission than what MNIT can and does provide to the medical and transplant communities. You can be an important part of continuing the development of new research or directing MNIT research in any number of targeted research areas. MNIT and its board have welcomed unique opportunities to donate money and resources to further advances in research. Below is a list of ways that you, your family, and your friends can keep the flame of hope alive for potential transplant recipients.
Directed Giving
With a planned giving strategy, you can put your assets to work in any area of MNIT that you choose. Your donation can be directed to any one of MNIT’s existing programs, including the One-to-One and Mentor Educational Programs and Alport Syndrome research. You can also donate to an area of MNIT that is not yet fully funded.
Gift of Cash
This is the simplest and most common type of support. You can make a one-time gift, monthly payments or pledge to donate over a one-to-five-year period.
Memorial or Honorarium Gifts
This is a gift made in memory of or in honor of a loved one. A notification of your gift, with the amount undisclosed, is sent to the recipient indicated.
Life Insurance
Donating a no-longer-needed policy entitles you to an immediate tax deduction for the policy’s current cash value. This applies to whole life and not term life insurance policies.
Bequests
You can provide a donor’s estate with a charitable deduction to offset federal taxes.
Life Income Gifts
The most common type of life income gifts are charitable gift annuities and charitable remainder trusts.
MNIT relies on your generosity to help continue our research and education programs, thus advancing the art and science of organ transplantation.
