Leave a Legacy
Including N4Cs as part of your estate planning is a wonderful way to remember the Center and to be remembered by future generations. In addition, your gift will help N4Cs remain financially viable well into the future. Consult your legal and/or financial adviser when considering a planned gift.
Legacy Society
The Legacy Society provides recognition to individuals who leave a financial legacy to the Community Center. It consists of all those who have notified the Executive Director that they have included N4Cs in their estate planning. Members of the Legacy Society have the special satisfaction of knowing that their contribution will continue to make a difference–giving future generations the opportunity to enjoy the cultural, educational, social, and wellness opportunities that N4Cs offers. We thank every member of the Legacy Society for making a gift to support the Community Center for years to come.

Giving Options:
— Bequests:
An easy traditional way to support N4Cs and reduce your estate taxes.
— Life Insurance:
There are many options for making gifts of life insurance; the simplest is making a charitable beneficiary designation.
— Retirement/IRA Fund Plans:
You can designate N4Cs as a beneficiary of part or all of an IRA or retirement plan.
— Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA):
CGA is a type of gift in which assets are transferred to N4Cs in exchange for a tax benefit and a lifetime annuity. Upon the donor’s death, the remainder of the CGA becomes a permanent gift to N4Cs.
— Charitable Remainder Trust:
This option is designed to reduce the taxable income of individuals by first disbursing income to the beneficiaries of the trust for a period of time and then donating the remainder of the trust to N4Cs.

Thank you for your consideration of this generous way to help sustain N4Cs.

Fundraising Goals
​
Banquet Tables and Chairs: $2,000
N4Cs hosts more than just athletic and fitness activities; our facility hosts more community events, yard sales, private rentals and dinners each and every year. Due to this increase in facility usage, N4Cs has had to borrow and rent tables and chairs for multiple events and activities. Additionally, many of the current banquet supplies N4Cs owns are becoming too worn or damaged. The needs to replace and expand upon our current supplies drive this fundraising need.
Floor Buffing Unit: $8,000
N4Cs spends nearly $1,000 every time the gymnasium needs to be scrubbed and buffed. This type of cleaning should be done semi-annually and through the winter months the floor needs scrubbed weekly. N4Cs currently does not have a machine to do this routine maintenance. This type of machine will allow N4Cs to perform these cleaning duties not only in the gymnasium but throughout the facility on our hard-surface floors. This investment will save the community center on contract labor and future maintenance and replacement costs.
Storage Addition: $15,000
As N4Cs continues to grow, the amount of space we have for storage and activities diminishes. The center currently has one main storage area which houses everything from baseballs and basketballs, to tables and our portable stage. The growing number of programs and events in the facility warrants building such an expansion on to the 3rd Street side of our facility.
General Donations
As a small community nonprofit, donations are always welcome to help toward operating costs or any unexpected expenses that may arise. General donations are utilized in multiple ways and can be designated to a specific cause or purchase as the donor may feel so inclined.
