Write and Mail a Check 

Please write your check to “NETWORK Advocates” and write “Endowment Fund” on the memo line. If you wish to make gifts to NETWORK Advocates or NETWORK Lobby’s annual operations at the same time, please use separate checks to ensure we have clear accounting between organizations and funds.

Other Ways to Give 

For the gift types below, please contact NETWORK staff in advance to let us know that the gift is coming and that you intend for this gift to be directed to the NETWORK Endowment Fund. Gifts sometimes arrive without this information, and if you let us know, we will be able to look out for it and ensure the gift goes where you wish to designate it. 

Give from your IRA 

If you are 70 1/2 years or older, you can make a gift to NETWORK Advocates directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA), and it won’t count towards your taxable income for the year — up to $100,000 per taxpayer per year. Qualified charitable distributions must be transferred directly from your IRA custodian to NETWORK Advocates by December 31 in order to be counted as qualified charitable distributions for the year. 

As with all gifts of this nature, you should consult with your financial/tax advisor. If you have additional questions, please contact Maggie Brevig at mbrevig@networklobby.org or (202) 601-7864.
