You already know that Healwell does important work. Our staff and volunteers work hard to improve the quality of life for people affected by serious illness and to make the work of caring for humans a sustainable, meaningful endeavor for clinicians and care providers.

What you might not know is that all that work is made possible by generous people like you.

I don’t know about you, but I like options. If you want to support our work and make being sick suck less for patients and caregivers, we’ve got LOTS of options:

Become a donor. 

I’ll bet you knew I was going to say that. We love all our donors and when I say that no gift is too small, I mean it. Healwell’s programs are sustained and grown by all of our donors. Every single dollar makes a difference for real people. 

Healwell is a registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. So 100% of your donation is tax-deductible.

Become a monthly recurring donor. 

This is one of my personal favorites. While it’s not really possible for me to give the kind of single, large gift I might wish I could give, I can afford to give a smaller amount every month. 

Monthly recurring donations make budgeting and planning easier for both the donor and for Healwell. And again, no amount is too small.

Invite your company/employer to match your gift 

This is an option that a lot of people miss. Donation matching is a corporate giving initiative in which an employer matches their employee's contribution to a charity, increasing the gift. Invite your company/employer to match your gift and make your contribution even more powerful. With matching, your $50 donation can become $100... just like that! 

Many, many organizations and companies offer gift-matching for their employees. How do you know if your employer will match your gift? Check out this article and search tool from Charity Navigator.

Give through Donor-Advised Funds. 

Healwell accepts gifts from all DAF platforms. Donor-advised funds are the fastest-growing charitable giving vehicle in the United States because they are one of the easiest and most tax-advantageous ways to give to charity.

When you contribute cash, securities or other assets to a donor-advised fund at a public charity (Fidelity Charitable is one example, but there are many others) you are generally eligible to take an immediate tax deduction. Then those funds can be invested for tax-free growth, and you can recommend grants (and even recurring gifts!) to Healwell.

Start a Facebook fundraiser. 

Is it your birthday? Or just a day you’re feeling generous? Facebook makes it very easy for you to create a fundraiser for the charity of your choice (ahem… Healwell).

Make a bequest or a planned gift. 

Giving to Healwell can be done either directly, through your life insurance, or through a gift model that can provide you with tax benefits. Talk with your lawyer about various gift models that you might consider.
