Girl Scouts of Connecticut accepts a variety of payment methods. All gifts given to GSOFCT are tax-deductible.
Checks
For processing and acknowledgement, please mail your check made out to “Girl Scouts of Connecticut” or “GSOFCT” (please do not send cash, if possible) to:
Fund Development
Girl Scouts of Connecticut
340 Washington Street
Hartford, CT 06106
Credit Card
We accept Discover, MasterCard, and Visa. Credit card donations can be made online or contact Fund Development at (800)-922-2770.
Pledges
Making a pledge allows you to pay your donation over time, either in payments or in one lump sum. To make a pledge, please contact Colleen Corriveau.
Gifts of Securities
A gift of appreciated securities that you have held for more than one year is frequently the most economical way to give. You will be eligible to take a federal income tax deduction equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date of the gift for up to 30 percent of your adjusted gross income and will not have to recognize the appreciation as capital gain.
When making an outright gift of stock, a donor typically transfers the stock to Girl Scouts of Connecticut. The donor is credited with the value of the stock when it is sold by Girl Scouts of Connecticut and provided with the appropriate charitable income tax deduction letter.
Please Note: It is extremely important that you notify our Associate Director Fund Development, Colleen Corriveau, transferring securities to GSOFCT. Securities cannot be sold until the donor has been identified. This can impact the value of the gift. Additionally, your name and address are required for tax deduction and acknowledgement purposes.
