Donation FAQs

Is my donation tax-deductible?

Yes! The Anthony Spano Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. All donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. You’ll receive an acknowledgment letter for your tax records immediately after your gift, if the donation is or exceeds $250. 

How is my donation used?

When you give to the General Fund, your donation supports our operational infrastructure and helps us respond to emerging needs in the community. Donations to specific funds go directly to that fund’s mission. As a volunteer-led foundation with no paid staff, your dollars go further, supporting projects and initiatives rather than overhead.

Can I donate to a specific fund or project?

Absolutely! When making your gift, you can choose which fund or project you’d like to support. If you want to support a specific project not listed, contact us and we’ll make sure your donation is designated correctly.

Is my payment information secure?

Yes. We use a payment platform called Givebutter, which has industry-standard encryption and PCI-compliant payment processing to ensure your information is completely secure. The ASF never stores your credit card information.

Can I make a recurring monthly gift?

Yes! Monthly giving is one of the most powerful ways to support a specific fund or project. Simply click the “Monthly Giving” tab on the donation form above to set up your recurring gift. You can cancel or adjust your monthly gift at any time.

Will I receive a receipt for my donation?

Yes. You’ll receive an email receipt immediately after your donation is processed. For donations over $250, we provide detailed documentation as required by the IRS for tax purposes, if it was not done online.

Can I donate anonymously?

Yes. Simply make a note on the donation form. If you prefer to remain anonymous, we’ll honor your request and not share your identity with the fund or project you’re supporting.

Can I donate stocks or other assets?

Yes! We can accept various types of charitable contributions beyond cash, including stocks, bonds, real estate, and other assets. Donating appreciated assets can provide additional tax benefits. Contact us to discuss non-cash donations and we’ll guide you through the process.

Does my employer offer matching gifts?

Many employers match charitable donations made by their employees, effectively doubling your impact! Check with your HR department or search your company’s matching gift database. We’re happy to provide any documentation needed to process your match.
