Ways to give

Making a gift of appreciated securities to AOA体育平台 that is designated for AOA体育平台 Behavioral Health can be an advantageous way to provide financial support for patient care across our many behavioral health programs and services. Indeed, a gift of publicly traded stock that has increased in value, which you have owned for more than one year, may provide greater tax benefits than giving cash. To effect a transfer of stock as a gift to us, your broker should use the following information:

Broker: Wells Fargo 
DTC #: 0141
FBO: AOA体育平台
A/C #: 4351-7380
Attn: Susan Pye
Gift Purpose: AOA体育平台 Behavioral Health/specific program or purpose

If there is a specific purpose for your gift, please add a note (e.g. Signs of Hope event, etc.). Please also notify Cornell Stinson in the Development Office at [email protected] when a stock transfer is made so that we can promptly identify and process your gift, and send you a gift receipt for tax purposes.

A growing number of donors are choosing to support charitable organizations through contributions made through a donor advised fund. A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is like a charitable investment account for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations.

Charitable Organization: AOA体育平台 (AOA体育平台 Behavioral Health is a part of AOA体育平台)
Tax ID: 01-0238552
