Support Tusk USA

Tusk’s aim is always to maximize funds reaching the field. On average over 80% of net funds raised are allocated in grants to projects and with your gift we hope to increase our overall support.

Each of the projects we support is carefully monitored to ensure your money is being effectively used. Please consider the pathways below in making your donation.

Direct Donation via check
All donations to Tusk USA are tax deductible to the extent allowed by US law. Please make all checks payable to Tusk USA, and post to the Tusk USA office, 40 East 94th Street, New York, NY 10128

Credit Card donation
Tusk USA cannot accept credit cards directly at its US office, though Crowdrise has offered their support as a web-based outlet for donors wishing to use credit cards to support Tusk. Donations are placed with Crowdrise, then immediately routed directly to Tusk. Please visit www.crowdrise.com/tusk.

Stock donation
Using appreciated investment assets such as stocks, bonds or mutual funds can be a tax efficient way to make a gift. If you have an appreciated security that you have owned for more than one year, you may deduct its current market value, regardless of your original cost. Furthermore, no capital gains tax is due on the appreciated amount. So your gift of appreciated securities can cost you less than a comparable gift of cash. The IRS allows you to claim charitable contributions for gifts of appreciated assets up to 30 percent of your adjusted gross income in any year. If you cannot use all of the deduction in one year, you may carry over the remainder for the next five years.

Please call us before you sell profitable investment assets.

Become a Tusk USA Sponsor
Tusk USA is always seeking sponsors for projects in Africa, and for fundraising events in the US. Several examples include:

• Direct funding of a student bursary through the Koiyaki Guiding School
• Your company or foundation will receive national recognition as a presenting sponsor of our Iconic Africa Event in New York City
• You could participate in the London or Safaricom Marathon (Kenya), or sponsor a participant if you are not a runner yourself

In-kind donations
Tusk USA gratefully accepts donations of goods and services, particularly with regard to any overhead or operating expenses involved with fundraising. These types of donations may include silent auction items, artwork, travel opportunities and catering. If you would like to learn more about in-kind donations and specific upcoming events, please contact Winsor in the Tusk USA offices tel: +1 212 602 1588.
