Support our Cause

Thank you for supporting A Special Blend!

Your support sustains us and helps us to grow.  We are so thankful for your consideration.  Below you'll find a myriad of ways you can contribute to our cause:

One-Time Donation

Your One-Time Donation can be made through our Donorbox feature below.  If you would prefer to donate through check, please feel free to either bring it by one of our locations or you can mail it to: A Special Blend, Attn: Katy Biagini- Development, 3900-C W. Market Street, Greensboro, NC 27407.

Monthly Giving

We lovingly refer to our monthly-donors as our Percolator Club.  To enroll, simply select 'monthly' on your donation in the box below, type Percolator Club in the notes portion of your donation, and contribute $25 or more per month.  Once we receive your donation,you'll receive a Welcome Letter detailing the perks of your support, which includes a special tumbler, drinks specials, and more.  Please make sure you include your email address when signing up so we are able to reach out with the details of this program.

Planned Estate Giving

By including A Special Blend in your estate plans, you'll help ensure our legacy of empowerment and inclusion for future generations. Both our ASB Development Staff as well as our friends at the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro are available to assist you in your estate planning.

Gifts of Stocks or Appreciated Assets

Donating stocks or other appreciated assets is a tax-efficient way of giving. If you own stocks that have appreciated in value, you can donate these to A Special Blend and and be eligible for a tax deduction for their full market value. This method also allows you to avoid capital gains tax that would be due if you were to sell these assets.

Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs)

If you are 70 years or older, you can make tax-free transfers of up to $100,000 per year directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to A Special Blend. These Qualified Charitable Distributions can satisfy your required minimum distributions (RMDs) without increasing your income taxes.

Donor Advised Funds (DAFs)

You can recommend a grant to A Special Blend from your Donor Advised Fund. This method allows you to receive an immediate tax benefit when you contribute to your DAF and then recommend grants to us and other charities of your choice over time. Each of these giving methods provides potential tax advantages and can be more beneficial than giving cash. They allow you to make a significant impact on ASB's mission while also maximizing your personal financial planning.

In order to keep in good contact with our donors, we kindly ask that you include your email address and physical address with your donation so we can be sure to send you a receipt as well as keep you informed on the impact of your support.

If you should run into any trouble while submitting your donation, or if you prefer to support ASB through check or other means, please email Katy. We are happy to help in any way.

For your reference, our Tax ID# is 81-4941320.
