CREATE AN ENDOWMENT

You may give to the Hartley Foundation Endowment at the Saginaw Community Foundation by clicking the button below. If you cannot contribute assets today, consider making the gift in your will or other estate plans, specifying that you would like your gift to be used to fund an endowment. You determine if your endowment will be designated to support a specific program or service. However, we prefer that your gift is given without restrictions to allow our board of trustees to direct the fund to our most critical needs.

With your generosity, you can impact programming and outdoor education initiatives that will have a lasting impact on taking care of our environment for generations to come.

GIVING THROUGH YOUR IRA

Donating to Hartley OEC directly from your Individual Retirement Account is an easy and efficient way to make a big impact. If you are 70½ of age or older you can make a transfer directly from your IRA to the Institute without realizing any taxable income. Please consult your financial advisor for guidance about how making an IRA charitable rollover gift affects your specific situation.
