How You Can Make A Difference
SPONSOR A
TUTORING STUDENT
Here’s how you can help: $500 covers the cost of 25 tutoring sessions (an academic year’s worth) for one child. $250 pays for one semester of tutoring for one child. $60 pays for three hours of tutoring.
DONATE STOCK
A gift of stocks can make a substantial gift to the Carnegie Center without reducing the cash you have on hand. You will further benefit at tax time, as stocks are deductible at the fair market value.
Giving stocks is easy; contact Development Director Jennifer Mattox at JMattox@CarnegieCenterLex.org or (859) 254-4175, ext. 25 for details.
As you move toward making this gift, please consult your tax professional and/or your financial planner to assist you with this process.
PLEDGE A GIFT YOU
WILL GIVE OVER TIME
If you’d like to split your contribution into smaller amounts to be given over the course of a year (monthly, quarterly, bi-annually) or over several years, making a pledge is the right choice for you.
The Carnegie Center makes this easy by sending you a friendly “Pledge Reminder” when the time comes to give your next amount. Through this method, donors benefit by making bold gifts they are comfortable giving while making an impact over the course of time. You’ll also receive tax benefits, deducting the total given toward your pledge each calendar year.
To learn more or to make your pledge of support, please contact Development Director Jennifer Mattox at JMattox@CarnegieCenterLex.org.
DONATE YOUR USED VEHICLE
Do you have a car, truck, van, recreational vehicle, motorcycle, dirt bike, tractor, boat, or trailer (running or not) that you'd like to donate? It's easy and costs you nothing, and you could receive a tax-deduction at tax time.
Carnegie partners with another nonprofit called Vehicles for Charity to process your vehicle donation. Your vehicle will be picked up at your residence/business and sold at auction, with a large percentage of the sale going to the Carnegie Center.
