Looking for a “set it and forget it” way to help our animals? Many employers offer the option to donate a portion of your paycheck directly to Heartland through payroll deductions.  Check here or with your Human Resources or Benefits department to see if your workplace participates in a workplace giving campaign or offers independent payroll deductions.  

Giving through a Donor Advised Fund(DAF)  is a powerful way to sustain Heartland’s mission of helping animals in need while enjoying immediate tax benefits.

When you recommend a grant through your DAF, the notifying organization does not always include your name or contact information. We want to ensure your generosity doesn’t go unnoticed! Please to let us know about your gift or with any questions

Donating appreciated securities such as stocks, bonds, or mutual funds is one of the most tax-efficient ways to support  Heartland. By transferring ownership of securities directly to the shelter, you can often avoid paying capital gains taxes on the appreciation. You may receive a federal income tax charitable deduction for the full market value of the securities (subject to IRS limitations).

To get started, please contact us with your financial advisor or brokerage firm’s information, and Heartland will provide them with our account information to complete the transfer.

Heartland welcomes the opportunity to partner with family and private foundations that share our commitment to animal welfare. Foundation grants provide the vital stability needed to fund our most impactful work—from large-scale medical rescues to the daily enrichment that keeps our residents happy and healthy.

Let’s connect! To discuss grant opportunities or to schedule a private tour of the shelter to see our mission in action, please contact us.

You can ensure that Heartland Animal Shelter remains a safe haven for cats and dogs for generations to come by including us in your long-term plans. A legacy gift is a beautiful way to carry on your compassion for animals in need without affecting your current finances. By including Heartland in your estate planning you create a permanent safety net for the pets who need us most.

A tribute gift is a meaningful way to celebrate a milestone or cherish the memory of a beloved person or pet. Tribute giving is available for every donation at Heartland.
