Unrestricted Gifts
Unrestricted annual giving is vital to the financial strength of the Wanda Gág House. Annual gifts sustain the Wanda Gág House Association’s mission, enhance its educational programs, and maintain the interpretive center’s outreach to the community. We invite you to become a member.
Gifts In Honor Or Memory
You may honor or remember someone special to you through a gift to the Wanda Gág House Association. Please send information about the family or person so they can be notified of your thoughtful gift. All honor and memorial gifts are acknowledged in the Wanda Gág House Association newsletter Cat Tales.
Endowment Gifts
An endowment gift begins working immediately and retains its value forever. When you give to an endowed fund, the principle of your gift is maintained in perpetuity, while a portion of the income it generates is used to support general operating costs and programming. Your endowment gift can also be designated to support a special purpose.
Planned Giving
You can make a difference in the future of the Wanda Gág House Interpretive Center and Museum by naming the Association as the beneficiary of a planned gift. Planned gifts are an excellent means of diversification, and reducing income and estate taxes. Planned gifts include will provisions, charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities, and gifts of real estate and life insurance.
Volunteer
The Wanda Gág House Interpretive Center and Museum benefits greatly from the unpaid support of volunteers from the community to work part-time as docents during the week and weekends throughout the year.
Assistance is also needed with programming, events and managing the Wanda Gág House Association’s archives collection.
