Matching Gifts
Company Match: Thinking about making a cash donation? Many companies offer matching gift programs, doubling or even tripling the impact of your contribution at no additional cost to you! A company match program allows your employer to match your donation dollar-for-dollar, amplifying the support you give to our school. Processes for these programs vary by company, so we encourage you to reach out to your HR or Corporate Giving department for specific guidelines and forms needed to submit a matching gift. Taking this extra step can significantly increase the resources available to support our programs, and we truly appreciate your efforts in maximizing the impact of your
generosity.
Donating stock or mutual funds is a powerful way to support Diablo Valley Montessori School (DVMS) while potentially maximizing your tax benefits. By transferring appreciated securities directly to DVMS, you may avoid capital gains taxes and receive a charitable deduction for the full fair market value of the stock or mutual funds on the date of the gift. This can result in a larger contribution to the school at a lower cost to you.
Here’s how it works:
1. Contact Your Broker: Instruct your broker to transfer the stock or mutual funds directly to DVMS’s brokerage account.
2. Notify DVMS: To ensure proper acknowledgment of your gift, please notify us of your contribution. Provide your name, the name of the stock or fund, and the number of shares being transferred.
3. Tax Documentation: DVMS will provide you with an acknowledgment letter for your records.
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, all gifts to DVMS are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law (DVMS Tax ID#: 94-1606963). For assistance or more information about making a gift of stock or mutual funds, please contact our administrative office.
Your generosity through gifts of securities helps DVMS continue to provide exceptional Montessori education and enrich the learning experiences of our children. Thank you for your support!
We ask that you consider being a part of our campaign. Every gift of any size is very important and makes a fundamental difference to our students. All donations to Diablo Valley Montessori School are tax-deductible and you will receive an acknowledgement for tax purposes. Financial support by students, parents, staff, Board of Trustees, grandparents, alumni and friends is greatly appreciated!
