Your personal contribution + a matching gift from your company = more money for NAMIC!
Tribute Gift*
A family member, friend or colleague is about to celebrate or commemorate a special occasion: a birthday, wedding/commitment ceremony, anniversary, graduation, promotion, or other milestone event. They have everything and you’re just not sure what to give them. Make a contribution in their honor to NAMIC! This is a great way to let that special someone know that you are thinking of them on that special day.
Memorial Gift*
How do you celebrate the life of a family member, friend, or colleague who has passed away? Consider a memorial gift to NAMIC.
*Tribute and memorial gifts will be acknowledged with a personalized card from NAMIC indicating your contribution in honor/memory of a loved one. The amount of the contribution is between you and NAMIC. It will not be mentioned in the acknowledgement NAMIC sends. All you need to do is provide NAMIC with contact information for the person you are making a tribute gift to/the family you are making a memorial gift for and we will handle the rest!
