A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is a philanthropic vehicle for individuals, families and businesses, providing a means to donate cash, publicly-traded stock, and, in some cases certain illiquid assets, to a public charity. It allows the donor to make a charitable contribution to the Turner Syndrome Foundation and receive an immediate tax benefit.
Matching gifts are an extension of corporate philanthropy, combining the power of individuals with companies. Many companies have a matching gift program, applicable to current and retired employees and their spouses. You give an amount and they donate the same, or potentially double or triple the amount.
All you have to do is ask. Speak to your company’s Human Resources department to find out if they’ll match your donation.
Monthly payments spread a donation, at any level, over a series of months, making them more tolerable for budgets and allowing you to plan. Monthly contributions are of paramount importance to TSF, providing the means to develop programs of awareness, advocacy, education, research and support with gently stewarding the mission along the way.
Choose the amount you would like to give and break it into manageable payments:
Monthly
Bi-monthly
Quarterly
Semi-annually
Annually
Please consider pledging now and paying in monthly increments throughout the year.
Workplace donations are a simple way to donate to the Foundation through payroll deduction plans. You may designate your gift to the Turner Syndrome Foundation through the Combined Federal Campaign (forthcoming), United Way or other employee giving programs. For more information, please contact your Human Resources or Charitable Giving Department to learn more about your company’s campaign.

Providing for the future of others is admirable and significant. When you designate a gift in your will or estate plan to the Turner Syndrome Foundation, Inc. you are leaving an enduring gift that promises a better future for babies born with Turner Syndrome.
A thoughtful way to ensure that your support continues after you are gone is by taking a few simple steps when preparing your estate plan. You can maximize the amount that will go to charity and minimize the amount paid for taxes while knowing that you have earned thanks of those who will be helped by your caring generosity. A gift in your will, called a bequest, could be the right option for you. Bequests allow you to have an impact on the future without parting with your assets today. And, your generosity will continue long after you are gone.
We provide an opportunity for people of all financial means to contribute in a meaningful way. Depending on your philanthropic priorities and your financial situation, you can talk with your attorney or financial advisor to determine which strategy and type of gift best suit your charitable goals. Give to a cause you care about most while gaining maximum tax benefits under state and federal law. Schedule a time to discuss ways you can maximize your gift.
You have flexibility. A bequest lets you balance your philanthropic goals with your concerns about the future. Because you are not actually parting with assets today, you don't need to worry that you might later need those assets to live on. Plus you can change your mind at any time.
You can be sensible in your commitment. Your gift can be made as a percentage of your estate, allow you to benefit Turner Syndrome Foundation and loved ones in relative proportion.
Contact your lawyer to add a charitable gift in your will. Decide what amount or percentage you want to give. Work with your lawyer to update your existing will with a simple codicil or to begin developing your estate plan. Notify us of your intention so we can thank you for your future gift, recognize you (we will honor your preferences regarding anonymity) and keep you informed of our ongoing activities.
