By making a contribution to our Foundation, you empower our efforts, bringing us a step closer to providing the greatest gift of all…the Gift of Life.

Your generosity directly supports the core mission of our Foundation—increasing the number of lives saved through clinical advancement, family support, public awareness and education.

The Giving Circles

This special recognition program offers our contributors the opportunity to build an even stronger connection with our mission. The Giving Circles acknowledge cumulative annual giving. Members will receive special communications and invitations to programs, and will be listed in our Annual Report and on our Wall of Contributors, a special place at our headquarters dedicated to honoring our leading contributors and advocates.

Annual Fund & Year-End Giving

The annual fund is a vital part of our fundraising efforts. As you plan your holiday-season and year-end giving, consider making a contribution to our Foundation’s annual fund. Unlike event registrations, 100% of your annual fund contribution is tax-deductible!

Planned Giving

Planned gifts are designed to help you meet your financial and charitable goals while supporting NJ Sharing Network in the long term. Our Foundation is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, so your charitable contribution is tax deductible to the fullest extend allowable by law.

Did you know you can make your planned gift in memory or in honor of a loved one? 

Through a memorial or honorary planned gift, you accomplish two things: You establish a legacy that invests in our life-saving work and you create a lasting tribute for yourself and your loved one. As the contributor, your name will be recognized on our Wall of Contributors while your loved one will be recognized on our Landscape of Life Wall.

If you would like more information about supporting our Foundation with a planned gift, please contact Amanda Tibok, Senior Manager, Philanthropy and Foundation Programs, at (908) 516-5649.  

*We always recommend that you speak with your tax advisor about your specific situation, as we cannot provide tax or legal advice.

Matching Gifts

Many companies set aside special funds each year to match contributions their employees make to qualified non-profit or-ganizations, such as our Foundation. Most often, companies match contributions dollar for dollar, but matches can vary. The NJ Sharing Network Foundation’s EIN is 20-2737719. (Most companies will ask for this number on their matching gift forms.)

Host a Fundraising or Awareness Event

Many of our generous supporters have made a difference by organizing events in their community. These events allow individuals to raise funds in honor or in memory of their loved one, while raising awareness about the importance of organ and tissue donation and transplantation.
