Other ways in which you can donate to GRIN:

Employer Matching Programs - Many employers encourage their employees' philanthropy through a matching gift program whereby your employer will match your individual donations. This generous program doubles - and sometimes triples - your donation. Check with your employer to see if your donations are eligible!
QCD
A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) allows IRA owners aged 70½ and older to donate up to $108,000 (for 2025) annually to qualified charities from their traditional IRA, with the distribution counting towards their Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) and being excluded from taxable income. This effectively reduces the tax burden on RMDs by allowing donors to donate directly from their IRA, eliminating the need to first take the distribution and then donate it. For more information, please speak to your tax consultant.
Item Donations - Although money goes a long way for us, we can also use donations in other forms. Gift cards for pet items, gas, office supplies and stamps go a long way in assisting to offset foster home and administrative expense. We welcome dog supplies such as new or gently used crates, baby/pet gates, dog toys including Kongs or unopened dog food. If you would like to donate any of these items, please contact us at grin@grinrescue.org and we will arrange to get the items from you.
