Supporting a New Year of Services

by Debbie Sokolov

With 2007 well underway and passing quickly, FORCE is hard at work planning another year of activities and services for our members; that means another year of our website (and its message boards), Help-line, newsletter, Chat-A-Thon and Passing of the Torch. Before you know it, May will be here and we’ll be meeting in Tampa at our second annual Joining FORCEs conference. We’re working diligently to secure funding so we can continue to make all these programs available to you this year. Your contributions are the fuel that keeps our programs going and growing.

Donations to FORCE are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. Here are five ways to help in 2007:

  • Make a donation on your own behalf.
  • Make a donation to honor a friend or loved one, or to mark a special event.
  • Ask your employer to make a matching donation.
  • Attend our benefit gala at the Florida Aquariaum during the Joining FORCEs conference. (See the conference preview on page 1.)
  • Make a donation from your IRA. (Although IRA distributions are usually taxable at your current tax rate, new legislation allows tax-deductible charitable distributions up to $100,000 through December 2007.)

So before 2007 passes by, please don’t miss out on these tax-free opportunities to help FORCE. Visit our website to view a presentation of our programs. For additional information, please contact me at debbies@facingourrisk.org.
