Individual Gifting
Help build strength and stability
At Habitat for Humanity, we build. We build because we believe that everyone, everywhere should have a healthy, affordable place to call home. When a family helps build or improve a place they can call home, they are also building a better community, a better life for themselves.
Your donation will help families in need of a decent place to build long-term financial security. With an affordable, stable home, families have more to spend on food, medicine, child care, education and other essentials. Your support can help us do more in all the many ways that Habitat builds.
Thanks to you, Habitat is transforming lives around the world.
Individual Payroll Deduction
A matching gift from your employer can double and sometimes triple your gifts to Habitat for Humanity of West Bay and Northern RI. A list of some of the companies with matching gift programs is listed here. If you do not find your company's name on the list, check with your personnel office to see if your company offers a matching gift program, as many more do.
Stocks and Bond Gifts
A charitable gift of stocks or bonds provides an opportunity for tax savings while generously sharing with others. A gift of stock owned for more than one year entitles you to a charitable deduction for the full market value at the time the gift is made. If the stock has appreciated, you also avoid a capital gains tax on the appreciation. In addition to helping HFHWBNRI, you may diversify away from low-basis, long-term holdings into other assets that will better suit your current needs.
Planned Giving
A simple way to support Habitat for Humanity West Bay and Northern RI into the future is to name us as a beneficiary of a bank account, life insurance policy or retirement plan assets.
Supporting Habitat through a beneficiary designation is a popular gift because it offers peace of mind. Your current budget isn’t affected because you make the gift after your lifetime, and you can change your mind at any time.
Another benefit to naming Habitat as a beneficiary: It’s a gift you can easily set up yourself. There’s no need to visit an attorney (and no fee!) to put your gift in place. Naming Habitat for Humanity of West Bay and Northern RI a beneficiary is as easy as 1-2-3-4:
