Other ways to donate

Donate from your IRA
Use your IRA to support neighbors in need through a Qualified Charitable Distribution, a tax-efficient giving option available to many donors age 70½ and older.
Donate stocks and funds
Support our community with a gift of appreciated stocks or securities, helping ensure neighbors have access to the food and resources they need while providing tax benefits to you.
Include University District Food Bank in your will
Leave a lasting legacy by including the University District Food Bank in your estate plans and helping ensure future generations have access to food and support.
Donate from your Donor-Advised fund
A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple, flexible, and tax-efficient way to support the University District Food Bank. DAF grants help provide nutritious food and vital resources to neighbors across Northeast Seattle. Making a DAF gift is easy—simply contact your sponsoring organization and recommend a grant to the University District Food Bank.
Request matching from your employer
Your gift may go even further through a corporate matching program. Many employers will match charitable donations made by employees. Reach out to your HR department to learn more and submit your donation receipt to multiply your impact.
We encourage you to consult your financial, tax, or legal advisor when considering these giving options.
Your Development team is also here to help. Please contact us here with questions.
