Play Your Part

Just as the audience plays a part in our performances, we invite the community to play a role in the success of this project and in sustaining our future. We have created the following ways for interested individuals, families, businesses, and foundations to help provide the financial resources necessary to meet the programmatic and facility goals for the Ancram Center for the Arts. All contributions are fully tax-deductible as allowed by law.

CASH GIFTS

You may wish to consider supporting the campaign through an outright gift of cash or by making payments on a pledge over several years.

GIFTS OF SECURITIES
& SECURITIES TRANSFERS

You may wish to consider the benefits of making a gift of securities. Some donors find that a gift of this type can provide significant tax benefits. If you would like to transfer securities in support of the campaign, or for further information, please contact us at (518) 329-0114.

MATCHING GIFTS

Many corporations sponsor Matching Gift Programs under which an employee’s charitable donation is matched with a contribution by the corporation. In this way donors can easily leverage the value of their contribution; in some cases, the matching contributions are as high as three to one.

MEMORIALS AND TRIBUTES

Ancram Center gratefully acknowledges gifts in honor or in memory of donors’ friends and loved ones. Without mentioning the amount of the contribution, acknowledgements can be sent to those honored or to the families of those being memorialized by the gift.

BEQUESTS

Donors may also choose to support Ancram Center through their will or other estate plans. Please call us at (518) 329-0114 if you would like more information. In addition to the above, gifts can also be made with annuities, remainder trusts, and real property.
