Give From Your IRA
See your philanthropy at work during your lifetime by giving to NRPA from your IRA. A donation from your IRA can be used to satisfy all or part of your required minimum distribution (RMD). The donation must be made by December 31 during the tax year in question. You should discuss this and other advanced giving options with your tax advisor. Contact your IRA custodian to complete your donation to NRPA. For more information, contact development@nrpa.org.
Estate Gifts: Stewards for the Future
Ensure the essential services and work of park and recreation professionals continue for generations to come by including a gift to NRPA in your will, trust, or as a beneficiary of your IRA or other retirement or life insurance plan. NRPA has partnered with FreeWill to provide tools to make planned giving easier and more accessible.
Gifts Through a Donor-Advised Fund
If you already benefit from donor-advised funds, you can easily support NRPA with a donation through your donor-advised fund.
Tribute Gifts
Make a gift to support the essential services of park and recreation professionals in memory or honor of someone special or to celebrate an important occasion, such as a birthday, wedding, or holiday.
Matching Gifts
Many employers will match their employees’ contributions to NRPA which can double or even triple the impact of your gift. Request a matching gift from your HR department at the time you make your gift.
