A Tribute Gift is a donation in honor of, or in memory of, a loved one, extended family member, friend, or colleague. These gifts can be processed via our Donate Now option or mailed in using our downloadable Tribute Gifts Donation Form. Notification of these gifts take approximately two weeks to process and send.
A Recurring Gift is an ongoing financial commitment with a start but no specific end date. The donor can generate a recurring gift online by completing the form provided by PayPal, the organization’s online merchant service provider.
A Matched Gift is a donation from a corporation or business that matches a charitable gift from an employee (or a retiree) of the company at a specific ratio set by the employer, the most common being 1:1. All matching gifts require that the employee (or retiree) completes a matching gift form that is then provided to the OPC to confirm the individual’s gift and returned by the OPC to the employer.
Publicly Traded Securities (Stock) may be donated to OPC.
In-Kind (Non-Cash) Gifts of tangible personal property such as works of art, antiques, collectibles, and equipment may be made. Please contact our Fund Development, Marketing and PR Manager for more information.
A Bequest or codicil in your will or trust is an easy way to make a deferred gift to OPC.
Life Insurance for which all the premiums have been paid is an ideal way to make a charitable contribution as long as the life insurance policy names OPC as the owner and beneficiary.
