HOW CAN "I" HELP?

Our largest source of revenue beyond food distribution is through donations. This source of revenue is critical to the individuals and families we serve throughout Clark, Champaign and Logan Counties. Supporting a favorite charitable organization, like Catholic Social Services, can take many forms. An individual just needs to determine what form meets his or her goals and desires. Making a charitable gift can be personally rewarding, significantly impacting someone in need and provide a tax benefit to the donor. Several forms of giving include:
                      

  • Online Giving - Online Giving is becoming a growing and more popular way for individuals to support a favorite charitable organization, like Springfield Catholic Social Services. You may find it, like others have, to be an easier method on your own schedule for giving. All gifts to Springfield Catholic Social Services remain in our service area of Clark, Champaign and Logan Counties. For your convenience you may make your tax deductible donation now by submitting the form below. A credit card receipt and tax-deduction letter will be sent to you at the address provided.  For your security, ABSOLUTELY NO CREDIT CARD DATA IS RETAINED AFTER PROCESSING TO PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNT INFORMATION!




  • Enter whole dollar amount: $

  • Annual Giving - An annual gift or gifts of cash during the year can support the operation of our agency. Gifts can be made year round beyond the two-planned mail solicitations we schedule during the June "Hunger" mailing and the "Holiday" mailing.
  • Capital Gifts - If you prefer, a large one-time capital gift can be made to help with the renovation of our facilities or designated to support one of our programs or service areas.
  • Appreciated Securities - Donated securities may allow you to avoid or reduce capital gains taxes and receive a federal income tax deduction. If you possess bonds, mutual funds or stocks that have appreciated in value but yield a low dividend you may find this an attractive option.
  • Planned Gifts - You may wish to make provisions for a planned gift to Catholic Social Services. Things to be considered include the purpose of the gift, the asset you wish to use, timing of the gift, income tax and estate tax planning. In all cases it is recommended to consult with a financial planner, attorney, accountant or other advisors.
  • Legacy Gifts - A family member, a special teacher or religious leader, almost anybody who has made an impact on our life or the life of others can be publicly recognized through a Legacy Gift.
  • Donate a Vehicle- You can donate your used vehicle to Catholic Social Services and receive a tax write off.

  • Meeting Your Goals- There is a way to make a gift for every objective you may have. Find out which is best for you. In almost every situation you should consult with your advisor. It is also important to update your will on a regular basis. Changes such as a birth, a death, and/or marital change can quickly affect your will and other documents. Tax law changes can also impact your situation.
