How to Give:

• Gifts, grants, contributions and bequests to the Foundation are tax deductible according to the rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue Service. A copy of the IRS letter that determines this tax deductible status is available from the Ohio Psychological Association.
• Gifts to the Foundation in memory of deceased psychologists (or friends of psychology) or in honor of someone who has made a significant contribution to the profession are appreciated. Acknowledgment of such gifts will be sent to all appropriate people (donor, family of deceased, honoree, etc.).
• Gifts and contributions to the Foundation are a good way to earn tax deductions on current income.  The Foundation will accept gifts of stock, property, and cash.
• A bequest in a will or naming the Foundation as a beneficiary of life insurance policy can be an important part of an estate plan. OPA can provide you with language to use in making a bequest to the Foundation. We recommend that those wanting to make the Foundation a component of their estate plan contact their lawyer or accountant to investigate the ways of doing the most to support psychology, while minimizing the tax impact on heirs.
• All gifts, grants, contributions and bequests will be publicized in The Ohio Psychologist or The Ohio Psychologist Review.
