Gift-in-Kind

Gift-in-kind, also known as in-kind donations, is a kind of charitable giving to nonprofits in which, instead of giving money to buy the most needed goods and services, the goods and services themselves are given. Gifts in kind are mostly distinguished from all other gifts. That’s why not all different kinds of gifts are recommended, but some gifts to charity are called gift-in-kind donations. Examples of gifts include goods such as food, clothing, medicines, furniture, office equipment, and building materials. So, when physical items are contributed in lieu of money, they are called gifts in kind. The performance of some kinds of services, such as providing office space or offering administrative support, may also be counted as a gift. Depending on our needs, there are several different kinds of areas divided into three different sections to accept gift-in-kind donations, which are recommended as follows:

Goods

Services

Expertise

This is our final destination to keep GEOKC always active via supporting Way to Give related campaigns, events, and many other great fundraising options, created for many types of reasons or purposes. The way we manage our funds for future generations is also very important for us to keep GEOKC current and active:
