How You Can Help

There are many ways to help International Hearing Dog, Inc. as well as the dogs and individuals we serve. In order to run its program, IHDI relies solely on the contributions of the community. Below are just a few suggestions of ways you can help.

• Make a monthly or annual tax-deductible donation to IHDI (www.coloradogives.org)
• Start an Employee Matching Program through your work
• Urge your club, business, or organization to support IHDI
• Volunteer at IHDI’s facility or event
• Attend IHDI events
• Organize an event to benefit the Hearing Dogs
• Include IHDI in your will or other form of bequest
• Let a person with hearing loss know about IHDI
• Donate to IHDI through your Combined Federal Campaign, a secure online donation, or wish list items
• Donate craft items and handiwork to sell to our facility tours
• If you are 70½ or older you can again donate from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA), thanks to a provision of the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010, which was signed into law December 17, 2010. The act also allows charitable distributions made from an IRA in January 2011 to be declared as 2010 gifts, should the IRA holder wish to do so.
• Establish a Charitable Gift Annuity for IHDI
