Ways to Give
OPEN M relies on the support of the community to deliver services to those in need. There are a variety
of ways to give which can be tailored to your wishes and financial position. Below are some of the ways to give.
Cash
A gift of cash, by check, is an easy way to give. You can make a general donation or, alternatively, tell us how
your gift should be used by designating whether it should go towards the health clinic, food pantry, family/social
services or our children's program. Gifts by check should be mailed to:
Tim McMahon, Chief Financial Officer

Credit Card
Giving by credit card can be done in two ways: over the phone by calling 330.434.0110 or, on-line by clicking on the "Make a Donate" button located
below and on our home page. We use PayPal, a global leader in online e-commerce payment solutions, as our transaction processing agent. Using
PayPal allows you to donate safely and securely without having to share your personal financial information with us.
Matching Gifts
Many companies sponsor matching gift programs where the contributions you make are matched by your employer. This is a great way to leverage
your contributions dollars and provide a bigger gift at no additional cost. You'll need to check with your company to see if they have a matching gift
program. If they do, sign-up and designate OPEN M as your designated preferred charity.
Memorial & Tribute Gifts
A memorial or tribute gift to OPEN M is a good way to remember a loved one, special friend, or honor someone. As with most types of gifts, you can tell
us how your gift should be used by designating whether it should go towards the health clinic, food pantry, family/social services or children's program.
Securities, Real Estate Gifts in Kind
Donating real estate and marketable securities is another good way to gift. Marketable securities (including stocks, mutual funds and bonds) may allow
you to make a larger gift at less cost. Gifts in kind, such as works of art, antique furniture, mineral or petroleum interests, rare coins, etc. are another
source of giving.
Life Insurance
Changing beneficiary designation to OPEN M on policies no longer needed for family protection is another way to give. Purchasing a new policy with
OPEN M as the beneficiary is also a possibility. Replacing into your estate the gifts with heirs to make your estate whole is another common technique
gifts you make in your estate.
Bequests
Charitable bequests don't always come only from people of wealth. Through carefully planned wills, individuals can provide a measure of support that
could not have been duplicated with outright gifts during their lifetime. Go to www.leavealegacy.org for more information about making a charitable
