Our goal at Leg Up Farm is to provide a place where people come together for the
benefit of our special needs children and their families. The staff and Board of
Directors at Leg Up Farm believe that it takes more than just therapists to create
this environment . . . it’s the spirit of cooperation, dedication to quality, the
collaborative effort of community organizations, and the support of business and
government that make it possible. We invite and encourage all organizations, businesses,
and individuals – both young and old alike, to be part of the Leg Up Farm team.
At Leg Up Farm, no child will be denied services because of a family’s inability
to pay. Our mission is carried out through the generous support of a vast network
of donors and volunteers.

Many companies have a matching gift program that matches part or all of their employee’s
charitable contributions. If your company participates, please forward the necessary
forms to Leg Up Farm for processing. These forms can normally be obtained from your
local HR or public affairs department.
You can direct all or a portion of your annual United Way giving to Leg Up Farm
by simply writing in our name and address on your Pledge Card. Donor-designated
contributions are assessed a nominal processing fee by the United Way.
A memorial donation is a wonderful way to honor the memory of a loved one. Gifts
in celebration of special events, such as a birthday or an anniversary, are also
very thoughtful expressions to recognize that special someone. Acknowledgement of
any gifts received will be sent to all parties as directed by the donor.
Appreciated securities, real estate, art pieces, jewelry, or other assets (including
used cars and trucks) can be sold or invested for the long-term benefit of Leg Up
Farm.
Special tax incentives may be available for donors who make a planned gift. Some
common types of planned gifts are bequests, charitable gift annuities, trusts, retirement
assets, appreciated stocks, and life insurance. These gifts may offer a number of
advantages, which include: income for life or a term of years to a donor and/or
other beneficiary, such as a spouse or other family member; reduction of the donor's
tax obligations as a result of a charitable income tax deduction; help to "unlock"
income from highly appreciated, but low-yielding property, without incurring any
capital gains tax; and save estate and gift taxes.
You can also support Leg Up Farm by donating tax-deductible goods or services. To
