Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs)

Matching Gifts

More than 1,500 U.S. companies offer the benefit of matching charitable gifts made by their employees. It's a great way to double or even triple your donation. Request a matching gift form from your employer and send it in completed with your gift. We'll take care of the rest!


Memorial or Tribute Gifts

Make a gift to the Fund for LREI in memory or honor of a teacher or loved one. This thoughtful gesture will be recognized in the LREI Annual Report.


Planned Gifts

Contribute to LREI’s future by planning for a special gift, such as a bequest in your Will or Trust, or through a Charitable Gift Annuity to receive payments for life. Gift planning is a meaningful way to honor your or your child’s experience at LREI while ensuring similarly transformative experiences for future generations of students. There are many ways you can make a gift that will cost you nothing today, or help you make a tax-wise investment in your future. Additionally, with your legacy gift, LREI will proudly recognize you as a member of the Elisabeth Irwin Heritage Society. 

For more information about making a bequest or to learn about other arrangements to support LREI’s mission and leave a lasting legacy, please get in touch with Director of Advancement Jennifer Weil at [email protected] or 212-477-5320. 


Securities

A stock gift may have significant tax advantages for you. By donating appreciated shares, you avoid paying capital gains tax and receive a charitable deduction.
