The workplace is one of the easiest and most effective ways to support myFace.
You’ve demonstrated your dedication to myFace’s mission, now ask your employer to do the same! Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match charitable contributions made by their employees, retirees and/or employees’ spouses. Companies are often excited to support the philanthropy of their staff and may double or even triple match contributions.

We partnered with Double the Donation so you can easily find out if your company has a matching gift policy. Just enter your employer’s name below. If you don’t see your employer listed, contact your Human Resources Department. If they don’t have a matching gift program, ask them to start one.
Potential Tax Benefits
A great benefit of donating appreciated securities is that you receive charitable donation credit for tax purposes for the full face value of the stock. This is especially valuable if the stock has appreciated significantly since you purchased it. Donating appreciated securities also allows you to avoid capital gains tax. These benefits help you stretch your gift even further.
If you have stock certificates you would like to donate, please send the unendorsed certificate and a signed stock power, available from your financial services provider, in separate envelopes to the following address:
Karen Lazarus, Director of Development
myFace
333 East 30th Street, Lobby Office
New York, NY 10016
It is myFace’s policy to sell all gifts of securities as soon as the stockbroker notifies us of the transfer. The proceeds are then applied to myFace’s programs and related activities.
If you have any difficulty using the stock tool or have any additional questions, please contact Karen Lazarus at 917-720-4701 or email at karen@myface.org.
