Ways to Give

Access to high-quality care improves the health of individuals and communities. We all benefit when our friends and neighbors are healthy and safe. In this way and steadfastly committed to service, Oasis is changing lives and building a stronger community for all.

Your gift to Oasis immediately helps people get the health, vision, mental health, and dental care they need. It might provide access to care that prevents an emergency room visit or a dental procedure that saves someone’s smile. Or you might provide equipment and supplies that make our work possible.

Your donation makes you part of the Oasis family. Since 1992, Oasis has been here for the Midcoast community – join us in making a real difference in the community we love.

Oasis Free Clinics is a 501(c)(3) organization, and our tax ID number is            01-0497587.

Stock Transfer or Securities

Donating stocks or securities is a smart way to support our mission while potentially minimizing your tax liability. This method allows you to avoid capital gains tax and make a significant impact.

Bonds and mutual funds worth more than they cost can result in significant tax savings. Giving stock through electronic transfer is the easiest and quickest way of giving if you have holdings in a brokered account. Please contact Anita at aruff@oasisfreeclinics.org

Donor Advised Funds

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable investment account that allows individuals to contribute money, stocks, or other assets to support charities.

How it works
A donor contributes money to a sponsoring organization, such as a nonprofit or financial institution, and receives an immediate tax deduction. 

Benefits
DAFs are a popular way to donate to charity because they offer tax benefits and flexibility, including:  

  • Donors can receive an immediate tax deduction for their contributions. 
  • Donors can recommend donations to any eligible IRS-qualified public charity. They can also choose to make recurring donations. 
  • Funds in a DAF grow tax-free.
