Everyone Can be a Philanthropist!

Our donors have one thing in common – a passion for this region and the people who are part of it.
Donors come to us through many doors:

• A first charitable gift to our annual Gifts for Good campaign, where you write one check and benefit nearly every nonprofit in the region.

• By joining the Queen of Hearts Women’s Fund and learning the joys of collective giving.

• As referred by an estate planning attorney or CPA to take advantage of tax laws that enable
money to stay local.

• As part of a thoughtful strategy of creating a legacy in the region.

• By seeking information on nonprofit organizations to become involved with.
