BECOME A DA CAPO DONOR
The Italian phrase da capo has to do with a repeat. Da Capo donors have authorized that a donation to St. Martin’s comes directly from their checking account or credit card on a regular basis (usually monthly) through a secure provider. These regular donations happen automatically and conveniently, and often allow donors to give more over the course of a year than by a lump-sum check or charge. Setting up “electronic funds transfers” (EFT) is quick and easy. Call the St. Martin’s office to set up this kind of giving.
BECOME A SPONSOR
Sponsorships allow a donor to receive name recognition, honor or memorialize an individual, and support the work of St. Martin’s Chamber Choir at a significant level. It is possible to sponsor a season, a concert set, or an individual singer. To learn more about becoming a sponsor, please contact the General Manager at 303-298-1970 or by e-mail at info@stmartinschamberchoir.org.
GIFTS FOR THE FUTURE
Gifts made through wills and estate plans from individuals also provide general support for St. Martin’s Chamber Choir. Gifts made by naming St. Martin’s Chamber Choir as a beneficiary of an IRA, 401K, savings account, life insurance policy or donor-advised fund support the financial needs of the future.
All types of gifts noted above can bring significant tax benefits, whether to you personally or to your estate after your death.
