Year-end Giving Options Prepare Michigan Sierra Club for 2024


Year-end Giving Options Prepare Sierra Club for 2024. Whether you are devoted to protecting the Great Lakes, supporting efforts to restore biodiversity, ensuring democracy or fighting to make sure that no community is facing unjust environmental burdens, your gift to the Michigan Sierra Club will help our work in 2024 to advance all these causes. There are several ways to support the work of Sierra Club in Michigan at the end of 2023 - check out a few ways below!


Give to the Sierra Club Michigan Chapter*: Please donate directly to the chapter before the end of the year ('tis the season, after all). Checks can be made to Sierra Club Michigan Chapter and mailed to 602 W. Ionia Street, Lansing, MI 48933. Or you can donate online right now using the link here: http://www.tinyurl.com/SupportMISC. 

Donate Stock or Securities: Donating stock or securities instead of cash can be a smart tax planning move and benefit Sierra Club Michigan Chapter. You can easily donate stocks (and get a nice tax deduction too!) by donating through our fiscal sponsor at The Sierra Club Foundation. Visit www.sierraclubfoundation.org/stocks to fill out the form and authorize your broker to transfer your shares. When you fill out the form make sure that you enter the purpose of the gift as “Michigan Chapter," otherwise we won’t receive your donation. It’s as easy as that! Making a simple, tax-deductible gift to the chapter has never been easier.

Give From Your IRA: Did you know that you can designate Sierra Club Michigan Chapter as the beneficiary of all or a percentage of your IRA and it will pass to us after your lifetime? It's simple, just requiring that you contact your IRA administrator for a change of beneficiary form or download a form from your provider’s website.
 
Seek the advice of your financial or legal advisor then contact Michigan Chapter Director Elayne Coleman at elayne.coleman@sierraclub.org for additional information on stock, securities and IRA contributions and sending a check or making a direct transfer that will benefit our work in Michigan.

*Donations to the Sierra Club are used for our effective lobbying, membership and organizing work and are not tax-deductible. Donations to support the work of the Michigan Chapter through The Sierra Club Foundation are tax-deductible, and are used for litigation and educational work, including protecting biological diversity and the Great Lakes.
