•More Ways to Give
Recommend a Grant from Your Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)
A donor-advised fund (DAF) provides donors with a centralized charitable giving vehicle. Through a donor-advised fund, you can make a charitable contribution each year and receive an immediate tax deduction. Many common donor-advised funds are Schwab Charitable, Fidelity Charitable, Vanguard Charitable, and National Philanthropic Trust, for example.
Simply complete a beneficiary designation form from your DAF advisor. In the DAF database, Artistree is listed as Purple Crayon Productions Inc DBA Artistree.
Donate through a Corporate/Employer Matching Gift Program
Many companies and employers have matching-gift programs, doubling (or in some cases even tripling) donations their employees make to a favorite charity. Employers may even donate funds to support employee volunteer hours! Artistree is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit arts center and is eligible to receive matching gift contributions.

Make a Gift in Honor of Someone Special
Artistree will gladly help you arrange a gift as a tribute or memorial to a particular person. A tribute is a gift that gives twice! It can commemorate a variety of sentiments and occasions, including birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, weddings or religious milestones such as baptisms, bar/bat mitzvahs and confirmations. A memorial gift is a wonderful way to remember and honor a loved one who has passed away. Families may request memorial gifts, in lieu of flowers, to be directed to an area of your choosing at Artistree.

Artistree welcomes bequests of many types and all sizes. A bequest can recognize a loved one or an influential artist, benefit a specific activity or program, or serve as a general and important investment in the future of the arts in our community.

Naming Artistree as a beneficiary of your life insurance or unused retirement assets can make a significant impact on our nonprofit.
