Other Ways to Make Financial Gifts

• Gifts in Honor or Memoriam

  Gifts can be made in honor or in memory of your co-workers, family and friends.

  Please make a note in the memo of the gift, and include their address if you would like us to send them an acknowledgement of the gift.

  All gifts in honor or in memoriam are listed in our print newsletters.

  Gifts can be sent to:
  MOM 
  3502 Parmenter St.
  Middleton, WI 53562

• Monthly Giving Program: Circle of Hope

  Becoming a monthly supporter is an easy way to make a powerful and long-lasting impact in our community.  Your recurring contributions add up over time, and help provide weeks, months and years of important assistance and resources to those in need.

  For as little as $10 a month you'll become an invaluable Circle of Hope member dedicated to ending hunger and preventing homelessness for good.

• IRA Distributions

  If you are 70 ½  or older, you can contribute money to MOM directly from your Individual Retirement Account in a tax advantageous manner.  IRA distributions donated directly from your retirement fund to a 501(c)(3) charity such as MOM, are considered Qualified Charitable Deductions. 

  The charitable distribution must be:

  • From a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA;
  • Direct from the IRA trustee to the charitable organization—with no intervening possession or ownership by the IRA owner;
  • On or after the IRA owner has reached age 70½; and
  • A contribution to an organization that would qualify as a charitable organization under Sec. 170(b(1)(a), other than a private foundation or donor advised fund.

  Making a QCD as opposed to a normal charitable gift has two main advantages. First, a QCD counts toward satisfying an individual’s minimum distribution for that year. Second, the distribution is then excluded from the taxpayer’s taxable income. Total annual Qualified Charitable Deductions cannot exceed $100,000 per individual. Spouses can each make up to $100,000 of QCDs. 

   This year, with fewer individuals expected to itemize deductions, under the new tax regulations, the charitable deduction will be lost for many people. However, if you are 70 ½ or older, and are charitably inclined the QCD really works as a way to preserve an income-tax-reducing charitable deduction.  Please consult with your personal financial advisor to learn more.

• Matching Gift Program

  Double your donation at no cost to you!  

  Many companies offer a matching gift program to encourage charitable giving among their employees, including spouses and retirees.  Some companies will match not only monetary donations but also volunteer time.  

  If your company has a matching program, any donations to MOM may be doubled or even tripled.  You will have to fill out some type of form (paper or online) and your company will verify with us that you have made a donation to MOM.

  Contact your HR department to see if your company has a matching program.  

  Many companies will ask for the following information:

  Organization Name: Middleton Outreach Ministry, Inc.
  Address: 3502 Parmenter St.  Middleton, WI 53562
  Tax ID or EIN: 39-1484945
  Match Coordinator: Erica Hendricks
  Email Address:  erica@momhelps.org
  Phone number:   608-826-3411
