Donate Now

Always fully deductible, your financial contribution right now is one of the best ways to help FSS continue its work.

Donations might be only a dollar or two at a FSS function, or an extra contribution with your annual membership. Or it might be a substantial donation to help the FSS mission of enriching, empowering and involving Eel River Valley boomers and beyond. All gifts are valued, used to the best effect possible, and make a difference.

Why Give Now?

Estate Planners often advise giving some money or other assets now rather than waiting.  The reason – taxes.  Giving now reduces the size of your taxable estate.  You can give up to $18,000 per recipient per year tax free.  (Check this with your tax preparer).

You Have Choices

You can choose how to donate, and where your money goes.

     

•  Cash Donation 

Most gifts to FSS take the form of a cash payment.

Please make checks payable to :

Fortuna Senior Services, Inc.,

PO Box 336,

Fortuna, CA 95540.

•  Memorial Gift

When your tax-deductible gift is a memorial for a special occasion, - a birthday,an anniversary, a graduation, a speedy recovery, or in memory of a loved one, you not only commemorate someone special, you have the satisfaction of giving a truly meaningful gift.   Fortuna Senior Services will send a card to the celebrated person or the bereaved family acknowledging your gift. 

•  Send a letter to FSS with the pertinent information and your check.

 

•  Help Fund A Senior Center

The number one FSS goal from day one is a Senior Center for Fortuna.  The only way that will happen is with the help of people like you, working hand in hand with local foundations.  The best way to make a contribution for this purpose is to make your contribution payable to the “Fortuna Senior Services Building Fund". This special fund invested through the Humboldt Area Foundation is restricted to the creation and maintenance of a Senior Center in Fortuna.
