Do you have a car that is just sitting in your driveway or garage and taking up space? Maybe it’s a pristine Buick Roadmaster Convertible from 1948, maybe it’s a clunker Accord from 1984 that you drove across the country. It could be a boat or a tractor or any other vehicle for that matter. A Smile for Kids has partnered with CARS to facilitate towing and auction of your vehicle if you are willing to donate the proceeds of the sale to A Smile for Kids. It can all be done without getting your hands dirty. Click here to find out more and start the process:
Charitable trusts planned to give through a will or gifting your donor advised fund after your lifetime is a way to guarantee that the efforts of A Smile for Kids will continue to serve under-resourced kids with orthodontic needs in the future. We have been around since 2003 and through careful financial planning and oversight, A Smile for Kids plan to be here for many more years to come. Whether you choose the tax benefit from donating securities and stock or monthly installments from your fund, we can work with you to ensure that your money is designated to exactly what you prefer.
As a non-profit 501(3)c organization, we receive distributions from funders in many geographical areas and fidelity has been a solid partner for us in that endeavor. However, you most likely have your own preference and no matter where you receive advice from, it’s critical to involve a professional who can guide you through the process. Please call Executive Director, Christian Moller-Andersen t 541-280-4214 if you have questions about A Smile for Kids and how your planned gift will impact our funding for under-served kids with strong orthodontic needs in the future.
If you choose to Sponsor a Smile, you’ll make a life changing orthodontic treatment possible for someone who otherwise would suffer bullying, public ridicule by their peers and limited social interaction in many aspects of their life.
As a sponsor, you touch all social determinants because A Smile for Kids requires a C grade level or above to begin treatment and at least 4 hours of community service every month. You have a direct effect on the future of a person and you’ll be there to witness the possibilities. If you both agree, we encourage you to communicate directly with each other, otherwise, we will facilitate updates to ensure you’re kept posted.
This is a very fulfilling opportunity for any potential sponsor and can either be an upfront $3000 payment or parsed out over 12 or 24 months if you’d prefer that. Just call 541-280-4214 if you are interested and we will walk you through the process.
