When it comes to charitable giving, Americans are the most generous people in the world. Citizens of all income levels respond generously and quickly when they're convinced of a true need. Initially, donors respond from their heart because of a desire to help others in need. Charitable giving is a gift - physically, emotionally, and spiritually. First and foremost, its a matter of the heart. The only motivation for giving should be the gracious gift itself.

As Winston Churchill said, "You make a living by what you make, you make a life by what you give."

WE NEED YOUR HELP! As residents of the Northern Shenandoah Valley, we must come together to help our most vulnerable population... our senior citizens.  This year, more than ever, we need your support to help provide basic needs to your senior neighbors.

HOW CAN YOU SUPPORT YOUR SENIOR NEIGHBORS?

$750 provides meals and services for 1 senior for 6 months.

Annual Giving

Larger annual gifts to a designated program or service. These gifts will either be applied to your specific request or will be use where need is greatest.

Honor Of or Memory Of

A gift in honor or memory is a wonderful tribute to the special relationships in your life... truly a gift that keeps on giving to help protect and care for others in need.

Bequests in Will or Living Trusts

A bequest in your will or living trust is a sure, easy way to make a planned gift that will perpetuate itself in future years to help countless others. Consult a lawyer on how you can include SAAA in your will and leave a lasting legacy.

Matching Gift Program

Some companies either match or give a percentage of the contribution made by their employees.  Some companies also match gifts made by their retirees and/or spouses.  Check with your employer to find out more about this giving opportunity.

Your CONTRIBUTION is TAX DEDUCTIBLE to the fullest extent of the law.

Gifts are made payable to SAAA and sent to:
