Your Generosity. Stronger Communities.

Make a meaningful contribution to the mission.

One-time donations offer a direct way to invest in community priorities such as food and essential supplies, housing stability resources, educational support, and veteran and family initiatives. Whether you are giving as an individual or honoring a special occasion, your contribution helps strengthen the resources available to advance our mission.

Choose the giving approach that reflects your priorities, whether a one-time contribution, ongoing support, or an investment in a specific area of our mission.

Create sustained support through consistent generosity.

Consistent giving can help organizations plan responsibly for community outreach, essential resources, and longer-term initiatives. A recurring commitment allows supporters to participate over time and choose an amount that fits their goals, instead of relying on a single large contribution.

Monthly supporters can choose a sustainable giving amount and help strengthen community-focused work throughout the year.

Celebrate a life, service, or meaningful occasion.

Tribute gifts recognize an individual, commemorate a loved one, or honor the service of someone who has made a difference. These contributions can turn remembrance or celebration into meaningful support for individuals and families.

Tribute giving can celebrate an individual, a veteran’s service, a family milestone, or the memory of a loved one while supporting community needs.

Partner to expand community impact.

Corporate supporters, private foundations, and institutional funders can help strengthen housing-centered community initiatives through grants, sponsorships, charitable contributions, employee engagement, and in-kind resources. We welcome thoughtful partnerships that connect an organization’s priorities with clearly defined community needs and areas of mission alignment.

A strong funding relationship begins with a clear understanding of purpose. Partnership discussions may cover intended populations, the initiative being supported, resource needs, timelines, organizational capabilities, reporting expectations, and meaningful ways to evaluate progress.

Bring the workplace into community service.

Workplace giving programs make it possible for employees to support charitable causes through employer-sponsored initiatives, payroll contributions, fundraising events, and workplace volunteer programs. Some employers also match eligible charitable gifts.

Supporters can check their employer’s available options and contact Moody’s Foundation to discuss the documentation needed to establish workplace participation.

Build a legacy of service and opportunity.

Planned giving allows supporters to consider Moody’s Foundation within long-term charitable and estate plans. Potential approaches include bequests through wills or trusts, beneficiary designations, and other charitable arrangements.

Donors should consult their own legal, tax, and financial advisers to determine whether a planned gift is appropriate and how it should be structured.

Explore additional ways to contribute.

Supporters may wish to recommend grants through donor-advised funds or discuss gifts of stock, real estate, or other assets. These forms of giving have different administrative, valuation, and acceptance requirements.

Explore meaningful ways to support our mission through donor-advised funds, appreciated assets, and legacy giving. Our giving team can help coordinate the details of these contributions.

Consider charitable giving as part of retirement planning.

Certain donors may be eligible to make qualified charitable distributions directly from an IRA to an eligible charitable organization under applicable tax rules. Whether a gift qualifies depends on donor age, account type, and other federal requirements.

Retirement-related charitable giving can be one part of a longer-term philanthropic plan. Eligibility and tax treatment depend on the donor’s circumstances and applicable rules.

Contribute essential items and practical resources.

In-kind giving can meet immediate community needs in practical ways. Food and pantry staples, hygiene products, school materials, household essentials, appropriate clothing, and professional expertise may contribute to program priorities when matched with a specific need. Different populations require different resources: school supplies and youth meals for children, accessible nutrition support for older adults, and everyday essentials for people facing homelessness.

Community drives can focus on food, school supplies, hygiene products, and other essential resources identified through our outreach priorities.

Give your time, talent, and community connections.

Individuals, families, and organizations can strengthen the mission through volunteer engagement, community drives, local events, and outreach partnerships. Participation encourages community ownership and creates practical ways to respond to identified needs.

Volunteer opportunities and independently organized fundraisers should be coordinated with Moody’s Foundation so they align with current programs and applicable requirements.

Transparency, responsible stewardship, and clear information.

Trust is built through clear information and responsible stewardship. Moody’s Foundation seeks to communicate its mission, describe the purpose of its programs, and discuss how proposed contributions align with identified community needs. Donors and institutional supporters are encouraged to ask about organizational information, intended uses of a gift, available documentation, and the nature of a proposed partnership.

Our giving priorities reflect housing stability, essential resources, and opportunity for the people and communities we serve.
