No matter where in the world you live, there are many ways to give to Free to Run. We are so grateful to our global community of donors and supporters.
If you have questions or would like to discuss any of the below options, please reach out to us at donate@freetorun.org.
WAYS TO GIVE TO FREE TO RUN
DONATE STOCK
When you donate stock in the U.S., you may avoid the tax on the gain while deducting the value of the contribution. Stock gifting is one of the most tax-advantaged ways to give, and Free to Run gets to keep the proceeds that would have otherwise gone to taxes.
GIVE MONTHLY
Monthly gifts are one of the most powerful ways to support Free to Run. It’s budget-friendly, easy to set up, and provides a steady, reliable foundation that helps us plan and respond to the evolving needs of the women and girls we work with.
DONOR ADVISED FUNDS
Contributions to your DAF are tax-deductible in the year they are made for U.S. donors, providing you with immediate financial benefits. DAFs may provide other tax advantages internationally, depending on your country’s regulations.
ONE-TIME GIFTS
When you give to Free to Run, you’re making an immediate impact to help advance gender equity globally through running. Donations can be made in almost any currency online, or by sending a check in the mail.
GIFTS IN WILLS
With a legacy gift, you can make a lasting impact without affecting your finances today. Gift planning can provide clarity for your family, as well as tax advantages. We’ve also partnered with FreeWill, giving you the option to write your will for free.
GIVE FROM YOUR IRA
If you’re 70½ or older, you can make a donation straight from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA), and it won’t count as taxable income. It’s a great way to support women and girls in conflict-affected regions while also getting a tax benefit.
CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS
A corporate partnership with Free to Run is a great way to demonstrate your organization’s commitment to global gender equity, and will be built with your specific goals in mind. From employee engagement to sponsorship or cause-related marketing, we’d love to chat.
MATCHED GIVING
