Sustainable Giving
While we are deeply appreciative of outright gifts of cash or securities that immediately benefit IDEA, we have launched a new planned giving program for supporters who understand the need to help secure IDEA’s financial future. Your financial support of IDEA’s innovative projects and programs help ensure that new technologies will be harnessed for educational use, and not simply commerce and entertainment. In a world where information is reduced to sound bites, and where the gap between information "haves" and "have-nots" is ever increasing, your support of IDEA means sustaining an organization that is at the vanguard of new and practical uses of technology for education.
Large gifts give IDEA the deep funding it needs to continue and broaden the scope of its programs and projects, while also offering significant tax advantages. Through careful planning and consultation with your attorney, financial advisor, or estate planner, your planned gift may also enable you to give more IDEA than you ever thought possible, while still providing for your family.
Your philanthropic and financial goals can be accomplished in a number of ways, including:
- Make a bequest in your will or living trust
- Donate retirement funds by making IDEA the beneficiary recipient of your 401(K), 403(b), Keogh, IRA, or other qualified pension plan
- Contribute life insurance policy proceeds
- Create a charitable remainder trust
- Donate property
