Planned giving is a great way to help out your favorite charities. We would hope that you would consider West Michigan Flute Association in your giving plans. There are several ways that you can do this:
1. Give a regular donation every year. These may be deducted on your personal federal tax return since WMFA is a 501c3 organization.
2. If you are taking required minimum donations (RMD's) from your IRA then consider making a charitable donation to WMFA from your IRA. This can be just a portion of your RMD such as $100 or $1000.
3. Consider leaving a bequest for WMFA in your will. This is easily done and can be any dollar amount or property. e. g. You could leave your musical instrument or music library to WMFA
4. Consider giving us your musical instrument now. This has been done several times already by members. Sometimes it was done when they were upgrading to a better instrument or when it was no longer practical to have the instrument
In any event we at WMFA appreciate your patronage and are pleased to continue providing quality flute programs and ensembles for you to participate in or enjoy. We have been very responsible in handling our donations having purchased over $60,000 in instruments and commissioned more than 20 new pieces of music.
Thank you for considering WMFA in your donation plans.
