Ways to Give

Online donations are an easy way to make a contribution to the Centerstone Foundation. Thank you for giving.

Mail-In Donations

Checks may be made payable to the Centerstone Foundation. Please use our print-friendly form and mail your donation to:

Centerstone Foundation 44 Vantage Way, Suite 400 Nashville, TN 37228

In-kind Donations

In-kind donations can help Centerstone help our clients recover from emergencies and meet their treatment, recovery and vocational goals. To ensure that we can appropriately use your gift of donated materials, please first contact a Foundation gift officer. We can help determine how your gift can be used best and where to make your donation.

Amazon Wish List

If you would like to purchase items directly for Centerstone’s hospital – you can do so on our Amazon Wish List and know that your contribution makes a difference.

AmazonSmile

When purchasing from Amazon, simply start your shopping at AmazonSmile. When you designate Centerstone as your charitable recipient, .05% of the price of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases will be donated to Centerstone.

Gifts of Securities or Real Estate

Gifts of appreciated securities, such as stock, bonds or real estate that you have owned for at least a year, provide a double tax benefit. You receive an income tax charitable deduction for the value of the property and avoid capital gains tax that would have been owed had you sold the property. Gifts of real estate are subject to inspection and approval prior to acceptance. For questions, or to initiate a stock gift, please email the Foundation or call (615) 463-6645.

IRA Charitable Rollover

Legislation signed in 2015 permanently extended the popular gift option known as the IRA Charitable Rollover—a qualified charitable distribution from an IRA. This is good news for IRA owners age 70½ and over who want to support Centerstone, because you can use your IRA required minimum distribution (RMD) to make a meaningful gift. It’s easy to do:

• Instruct your IRA custodian to make a distribution directly to the Centerstone Foundation.
• Although there is no tax deduction, the distribution is excluded from your income for federal tax purposes—no tax is due!
• Up to $100,000 of your gift qualifies for this favorable tax treatment.
• Your gift makes an immediate impact.

For more information about planning and completing an IRA Rollover gift, you may indicate your interest on this form or email the Centerstone Foundation directly or call (615) 463-6645.

Planned Gifts

Planned gifts can maximize the impact of your gift, minimize your tax obligations and meet your individual needs. Centerstone is prepared to work with you directly or in partnership with your financial advisor to help you fulfill your philanthropic goals. All donors with planned giving commitments are welcomed into the Sapphire Society, which honors the generosity and commitment of those who have chosen to create a lasting legacy to Centerstone. You can become a member of the Sapphire Society by making a gift to the Centerstone Foundation through a planned gift commitment. Learn more about Planned Giving at Centerstone or send us your specific questions via this online form.

Gifts in Tribute

Any gift can be a tribute gift by requesting that a notification be sent to the person you are honoring, or to family members of the individual you are remembering. To learn more about Gifts in Tribute, email the Centerstone Foundation or call (615) 463-6645. Thank you for your generous gifts to the Centerstone Foundation! Your support makes possible our support, delivering care that changes people’s lives.
