More Ways to Give

Wills

Get peace of mind by creating or updating your legally binding will. To help you get started on your plans and legacy, you can use FreeWill, an online tool provided by FSA that guides you through the process of creating your will or trust. It’s easy to use, accessible online, and can be completed in 20 minutes for free. You can use this resource on its own, or use it to document your wishes before finalizing your plans with an attorney.

Already included us in your will or trust? Let us know by filling out our Gift Intent Form.

Trusts

Create your Revocable Living Trust to minimize the cost and delays of the probate process and ensure your wishes are carried out. With our partner FreeWill, it’s easy and 100% free.

Beneficiary Designations

Do you have an IRA, 401(k), life insurance policy, or any other assets not included in your will? If so, these are called non-probate assets and you must plan your beneficiaries for them separately. Use this online tool to make your plans and designate us as a beneficiary of one or more of these assets. If beneficiaries are properly set for these non-probate assets, ownership can transfer faster than your assets that must go through probate. 

Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)

Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are investment accounts for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations today. You can make a grant request from your DAF in a matter of minutes. Our tool integrates with most major DAF sponsors, saving you time while streamlining the grant request process.

The secure DAF link below will:

  • Automatically link with your DAF
  • Allow you to recommend how you’d like your gift to be used
  • Notify the Florida Sheriffs Association of your intentions

Using the link below to grant from your DAF also saves us a lot of time, so thank you! It’s a great way to ensure consistent financial support while saving cash for immediate needs.

Stocks

Donating stocks allows you to avoid capital gains tax and often take a charitable deduction for the full value of the asset. By using this tool to donate your stock, we can track your gift and send you the correct receipt while you get the tax savings you deserve. 

If you would prefer to donate through your broker, access our transfer information from the link above to notify the Florida Sheriffs Association of your gift.  

Qualified Charitable Distributions

If you are 70.5 or older, giving from your IRA can help reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it! By using the link below to give from your IRA, you can auto-complete your paperwork and we can track your gift to send you the proper tax receipts.

Crypto

We now accept donations of Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies! This gives us one more way to fund our work and can provide you with extra tax benefits. Donating cryptocurrency is safe, easy, and tax efficient.

Click the link below and use the form to make your gift. A receipt will be sent to the provided email address. Your contact details help us tremendously in understanding who our donors are. Your personal information is never shared, sold, or traded. Your donation does not trigger capital gains tax and may be tax-deductible.
