Giving to the YWCA

Donate Online

You can make your gift online through our website. All of our online donations are collected securely through PayPal. However, you do not need a PayPal account. You can also make your donation using a credit card or debit card.

Several options are available:

  • Make a one-time gift.
  • Make a recurring gift (will ask once form is submitted).
  • Make a gift in honor of or in memory of someone special.

In addition to donating online, there are other ways you can support the mission and work of YWCA.

We are always accepting donations! Currently, our greatest needs are refrigerators, Pac-N-Plays, infant beds, toddler beds, twin sheet sets, towels, washcloths, and twin mattresses and box springs.  All donations are tax deductible.

Please refer to our COVID-19 guidelines regarding in person donations!

Donate Stock

Donations of shares of stock are also gratefully accepted, and there are many benefits:

  • Your gift of securities entitles you to a federal charitable income tax deduction.
  • You are allowed to deduct the full fair market value of your gift when you make a gift of appreciated securities, as long as you have owned the securities for a year or more.
  • You may use your deduction for up to 30 percent of your adjusted gross income.
  • You are allowed to carry any unused deduction forward for up to five additional years.
  • You will not be required to pay capital gains tax on the stock you donate.

How Can I Make a Gift of Stock?

1. Discuss tax related issues with your attorney or accountant.
2. Authorize your stock broker or your bank to complete the transfer process.
3. Instruct your broker/bank to call 765-284-3345 and speak with WaTasha Barnes Griffin.

If you are in possession of the physical securities, you can directly mail or hand deliver the certificate(s) without any endorsement or assignment to:

YWCA Central Indiana
310 E. Charles Street
Muncie, Indiana 47305

Please enclose a letter stating the purpose of your contribution. In a separate envelope, please include a signed stock power form for each gift. Your broker or banker will be able to provide you with the form.

My Gift is in Process – What’s Next?

Please notify us of all stock gifts. This will help us shepherd your gift securely through the transfer process.

Planned Giving

Choose from many giving options, including naming the YWCA Central Indiana as a beneficiary in your will and more complex trust arrangements that provide life-long income. Help us secure the future!
