Matching Gifts

Did you know that many companies will match employees’ donations to charitable causes. Because the LNESC is a social service, not-for-profit organization, your company may match your donations — making your gift go further and be more impactful. Donations may include monthly payroll deductions, as well as annual gifts. Read more.

Emergency Campaigns

When crises (natural disasters, war, acts of terrorism, etc.) demand extra attention, LNESC is there to help, in the Latino communities. LNESC absorbs all administrative costs associated with emergency campaigns so that 100% of funds collected go directly to help victims and their families. Join our email list and be one of the first to know about these opportunities to help others.

Supplemental Giving

Supplemental gifts are based on donor desires, as well as in support of needs that exist beyond the scope of LNESC. To learn how you can establish a gift that addresses specific areas of interest, please contact our Director of Development at Development@LNESC.org.

Gifts of Securities

A transfer of appreciated securities held more than one year may provide you with significant advantages. You will get double the benefit of an income tax charitable deduction based on the full value of your appreciated securities, in addition to not paying capital gains tax. Check with your financial professional or contact our Director of Development at Development@LNESC.org for more information.

IRA Donations

A transfer of an IRA account may have tax advantages for those age 70½ and older. Through the Charitable IRA Rollover, you can transfer up to $100,000 directly from your Individual Retirement Account to LNESC. This counts toward your minimum required distribution and is not taxable. Check with your financial professional or contact our Director of Development at Development@LNESC.org for more information.

Major Gift

Supporting LNESC through a major gift provides funding for the highest priorities of the LNESC mission. A significant contribution will go a long way towards education and leadership initiatives for Latino students across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Consider how you can help LNESC reach fundraising goals through a targeted donation arrangement. Contact our Director of Development at Development@LNESC.org for more information.

Planned Giving

Opportunities to support LNESC can also come in the form of planned giving, also referred to as gift planning or legacy giving. This is the process of making a significant contribution during a donor’s life or death as part of a financial or estate plan. A donor can arrange to contribute a major charitable gift to LNESC beyond their lifetime. Check with your financial professional or contact our Director of Development at Development@LNESC.org for more information.
