2008 Annual Campaign
Your support helps CRT develop the quality growth programs and policies that support more livable and sustainable communities. Unrestricted funding in particular - not tied to any specific project - gives us the freedom to test different strategies and fund the research and development activities that larger institutional donors are less able to support.
Ways to Give
Outright Gift - An outright gift to Cumberland Region Tomorrow can be made by check or credit card. You may make a credit card donation online, or mail your donation to:
Cumberland Region Tomorrow
Attn: Development Committee
P.O. Box 150902
Nashville, TN 37215
Quality Growth Toolbox Fund - A gift of $1,000 or more will help us train planning commissioners and local leaders through our 4-hour Quality Growth Toolbox Training. For more information about this fund, email Dave Keiser, Program Director.
Stock Gifts - You can support CRT with a gift of appreciated stocks. Transfer them to CRT through your broker, avoid capital gains tax and deduct the charitable gift.
Memorial or Honorary Gift - You can make a donation in memory of a loved one or to honor someone special in your life. When you make a tribute or memorial gift, CRT sends a thank you to the special person or family member in recognition of your gift.
Employer Matching Gifts - Don't forget to ask your employer about whether it has a matching gift program. This could double or triple your gift to CRT!
A Gift for the Future - You can invest in strategies that build more sustainable quality communities by including CRT in your will. This is an easy way to leave a gift that will benefit the Cumberland Region.
If you have questions about CRT's giving opportunities, please email Dave Keiser or call (615) 986-2698
