Give by mail Use the gift letter

Give by mail.

Send your gift with a short note to the Society in Farmington.

Write a note. Say that it is a gift, and put your name and return address so the Society knows who it is from and can write back. The gift letter is ready to print.
Name a purpose, if you like. If you would like your gift to go toward one purpose, such as vet bills, spay and neuter, food, humane education or local rescues, say so in your note.
Ask anything first. Questions about how to make out a check, or anything else, can go in a letter before you send a gift.

About tax.

The Society is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, EIN 02-6013420. Gifts to 501(c)(3) organizations may be tax-deductible to the extent the law allows.

The IRS classifies the Society as a private foundation, and the rules for gifts to private foundations can differ from those for public charities. So please ask the Society, and your own tax adviser, before you count on a deduction.

Other ways to help.

Each of these starts the same way, with a letter to Farmington.

Gifts in a will

Remember the Society.

If you would like to leave a gift to the Society in your will, talk to your attorney. They will need the Society's legal name, Strafford County Animal Protection Society, its EIN, 02-6013420, and its address in Farmington.

You are welcome to write and let the Society know, but you do not have to.

Humane education

Pass the kindness on.

Humane education is one of the Society's purposes. To support it, say so in the note with your gift. If you would like to help in another way, write and ask what would be useful.

Fundraise for us

Raise something together.

Thinking of raising money for the Society, at a bake sale, a birthday or a school? Please write to the Society before you start, so it can tell you how best to send the money in.
