Types of Donations

 


Financial Contributions

It is no secret that a very large part of the success of the mission of the Bruce Lee Foundation depends upon your goodwill and generosity.  The best way to support us financially is by making a contribution directly to the Bruce Lee Foundation.  Any donated amount, no mater how small, is always appreciated and needed.  This site enables you to make a contribution online via major credit card or you can print a form to send a contribution by mail.  Every donation is tax-deductible to the extent of the law and the donor will receive an acknowledgement for the donation.

Gift of Skills / Services / Merchandise

Do you have a skill that would come in handy for our organization?  Perhaps you have business skills or services (e.g., printing, graphic design, manufacturing, etc.) you could donate or contacts that would be of assistance to us.  Or perhaps you are in a position to donate goods or merchandise (e.g., t-shirts, gym bags, etc.) that the Bruce Lee Foundation can brand and sell at an event or seminar.  There are many ways which you can aid the Bruce Lee Foundation in our mission.  If you would be interested in donating your skills / services or merchandise, please let us know by emailing us at info@bruceleefoundation.org.

Memorial / Honorary Gifts


Making a donation to the Bruce Lee Foundation provides a wonderful opportunity  to honor or remember someone special or a special occasion through a memorial gift or an honorary gift.  Such gifts are great ways to make a lasting impact on the lives of others, just as the honorees have done for you.
When a memorial or honorary gift is received, a personalized tribute card will be sent to the honored person or family notifying them of the donation (the amount of the donation will not be revealed).  This site enables you to make a memorial or honorary gift online via major credit card or you can print a form to send a memorial or honorary gift by mail.  Every memorial / honorary gift is tax-deductible to the extent of the law and the donor will receive an acknowledgement for the donation. 


Gifts of Appreciated Stock

You may receive greater tax benefits by giving a gift of appreciated stock that you have owned for more than one year than giving cash.  Your tax deduction should be equal to the fair market value of the stock at the time of the gift.  Further, you should avoid having to pay capital gains tax on any appreciation.  Your broker can assist you in making a gift of stock directly to the Bruce Lee Foundation.

 

Planned Giving

By including the Bruce Lee Foundation in your estate plan, you will not only reach and achieve your own philanthropic goals, but it will also allow the Bruce Lee Foundation to continue its mission of preserving and perpetuating the legacy of Bruce Lee for generations to come. There are many charitable planned giving options available to you (e.g., naming the Bruce Lee Foundation as a beneficiary of your will, living trust, life insurance policy or retirement plan, charitable trust, etc.). Your attorney or financial advisor can advise you on the options available (as well as the tax benefits each offers) and assist you in establishing a plan that is tailored to your needs and desires.

If you are interested in making a donation to the Bruce Lee Foundation via planned giving, or if you or your advisors have any questions in this regard, please let us know by emailing us at info@bruceleefoundation.org.

Workplace Giving


Many companies encourage their employees to make charitable contributions by offering workplace giving programs, through which your contributions are deducted directly from your paycheck.  Ask your employer whether your company participates in workplace giving programs through which you may be able to designate a specified amount of each paycheck to support the Bruce Lee Foundation.  
If you are interested in making a donation to the Bruce Lee Foundation via workplace giving, or if you have any questions in this regard, please let us know by emailing us at info@bruceleefoundation.org.

Matching Gifts


Increase your donation with employer matching funds. Many employers will mach your personal donation. Check with your company for more information on matching gift programs. Employer matching gifts may also be available to you if you are the spouse of an employee, a retired employee or the spouse/widow/widower of a retiree.

If you are interested in making a donation to the Bruce Lee Foundation via matching gifts, or if you have any questions in this regard, please let us know by emailing us at info@bruceleefoundation.org.
