In-kind giving is a non-cash donation; product, good or service that is made directly to the Club. Donations may include direct services such as cleaning or printing services, office or electronic equipment donations, tickets to a sporting event or donations of food for the Club. In-kind donations are tax-deductible (at the depreciated value of the donation) and provide hope and opportunities to our members, the most at-risk youth. In-kind gifts allow us to reduce our expenses and direct more of the money we raise to direct services for youth.
