What are Giving Cards?
The Community Foundation of Greater Des Moines introduces a new and exciting Giving Card program to encourage giving in our community that is unique, meaningful and fun, just in time for the holidays. Much like a retail gift card, Giving Cards can benefit any 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Purchase Giving Cards at www.desmoinesfoundation.org to celebrate a special occasion such as a birthday, holiday or job well done. And you receive a charitable tax deduction! Pass it on! The person who receives the Giving Card selects the charity he or she wishes to support at www.desmoinesfoundation.org. You’ve shared the joy of giving and charitable organizations benefit as we build a better community together.
