Ways to Give
Double Your Discount with our Learning Express Holiday Wishlist Bin!
Learning Express is launching their Holiday Wishlists for area nonprofits, and the Austin Hatcher Foundation is grateful to be selected! This weekend, support AHF and double your discount: Any purchase in our store gets 10% off - but customers who purchase at least one toy from the AHF wishlist bin can Double Their Discount to 20% off their order. (20% off the donated item and anything they are buying for themselves.) In other words, a donation from a bin unlocks the 20% level! Each item on the registry will have a direct impact on the quality of services and enrichment we provide our families throughout the year.
AHF is always in need of crucial supplies in order to provide quality services for children and families in our Education Advancement Center. Your donation, whether it be snacks, therapy tools, or art supplies, has a direct impact on the children and families we serve!
Gifts are accepted through all donor-advised funds. You can donate by selecting via the widget or your brokerage. If you cannot find your Donor-Advised Fund in DAF Direct, see below for more options.

How Does it Work?
Contact your broker or investment account holder about a TOD (Transfer on Death) or beneficiary designation form for mutual funds or other types of investment accounts.
Benefits
You receive an income tax deduction for the fair market value of the securities on the date of transfer, no matter what you originally paid for them!
You pay no capital gains tax on the transfer when the stock or share of the investment account is sold.
You've planned for the future, what's next?
Investment accounts hold cash or stocks for the long term. You may have a mutual fund or a brokerage account, which is held at a financial institution. The objective of these accounts is to achieve long-term growth, provide future income or preserve capital. After your passing, the remaining account balance may be transferred to heirs or charity.
When you opened the account, you should have received a form that tells the financial institution what to do with the assets when you pass away. This form is called a "Transfer on Death" (TOD) form. With it, you decide how your assets will be transferred. If you do not complete this form, you will cause unnecessary confusion among your heirs and added expense to your estate administration.
Keep it simple. Ask the account custodian for a TOD form, complete it, and share it with your financial or legal advisor. You can also leave all or a percentage of the assets to the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer. Any portion of your investment account left to us will be exempt from estate and inheritance tax. You also avoid paying any capital gains on assets that have increased in value over the years!
You can donate in honor or memory of someone who has been impacted by cancer! Simply click the link below and make sure to select that you would like to dedicate your donation in honor or in memory of someone. We will send a personal thank you on your behalf to whoever you specify.
Giving in memory or in honor of someone is a meaningful way to remember someone's legacy or honor their fight against childhood cancer. Other ways you can give in memory or in honor is by setting up a memorial or tribute fundraising page here. With a fundraising page you can add pictures, tell their story, and send to your community to raise awareness.
