How You Can Help
Today's young people face life-threatening challenges on a daily basis -- substance abuse, neglect, AIDS, poverty -- the list is far too long. If our youth are to grow up and become productive citizens of society -- often if they are to grow up at all -- they need a place where they can be just kids. They need caring adults to help them develop the skills and self-confidence to say "no" to dangerous past-times. Boys & Girls Clubs offer that -- and much more.
As the nation's fastest-growing youth service organization, Boys & Girls Clubs of America serves millions of young people ages 6-18. Our legacy of positive youth development dates back to 1860 when the first Club was founded for young people in need of a place to call their own. The story of Boys & Girls Clubs is the story of America -- filled with challenge, opportunity and hope.
Throughout our history, we have always held a special concern for children from disadvantaged circumstances. Our comprehensive youth development programs and services provide young people with the skills to overcome their challenges and become responsible citizens and leaders.
Your investment in Boys & Girls Clubs of America helps guarantee a strong future for our young people and our nation. We invite you to invest in America's future. The choice is yours, but the rewards are shared by everyone -- especially the children who represent America's future.

Gifts
A charitable gift annuity can provide tax benefits now and a lifetime income for the donor and a beneficiary if desired.
A CHARITABLE GIFT ANNUITY offered through a charity is used by many to provide income for the annuitant and a second beneficiary, if any. The annuitant receives a contract or agreement from the charity which states that the charity will pay the annuitant a fixed income for life (lives) or a fixed period of time, with payments to start immediately or at some set future time. If the annuitant dies before the fixed period of time, any balance is paid to the annuitant's designated beneficiary. Probate or court involvement is avoided on these funds. The income paid under the annuity is secured by the assets of the charity.
Since a portion of the annuity is a gift, you'll receive an income tax deduction for the gift.
A portion of the annual annuity income is exempt from federal taxes.
You may save tax on the capital gains (profit from an investment).
You avoid estate taxes and probate costs.
The charity will have immediate use of some of the funds you pay them for your annuity.
Your annuity is as safe as the organization you invest with, for the total assets of the organization stand behind its agreement to make payments to you.

One Campaign
We have the power to impact the life of each and every young person we serve. Therefore, we want to encourage young people to come to our Club, take part in our exciting programs and be inspired to come back.
In order to do so, the Boys & Girls Club of Eden needs the generosity of local foundations, corporations and INDIVIDUALS.
ONE CAMPAIGN is an exciting new fundraising initiative by Boys & Girls Clubs of America, one that will create a set time of year for annual giving by individuals to the Boys & Girls Club of Eden, combining the power of broad-scale marketing with personal, one-on-one solicitations by volunteers.
The Annual Campaign will be a board driven effort, during a defined period of time, to secure unrestricted operating funds from individuals, while demonstrating the impact of the Club's mission.
