A Donor Advised Fund allows you to make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and recommend grants to Avail Academy over time. If you have a DAF through a financial institution or community foundation, you can direct a gift to Avail Academy using the following information:

Legal Name: Calvin Christian School of Minneapolis dba Avail Academy
Address: 4015 Inglewood Ave. S, Edina, MN 55416

Tax ID: 41-0847701

Please ask your fund administrator to include your name so we can properly acknowledge your generosity and celebrate your support of our mission.

If you are age 70½ or older, you may make a gift directly from your IRA to Avail Academy as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). A QCD counts toward your required minimum distribution and may reduce taxable income. To make a QCD, contact your IRA administrator and request that the distribution be sent directly to Avail Academy:

Legal Name: Calvin Christian School of Minneapolis
Address: 4015 Inglewood Ave. S, Edina, MN 55416

Planned gifts ensure the mission of Avail Academy thrives for generations to come. By including Avail Academy in your will or estate plan, or by designating the school as a beneficiary of a retirement account, life insurance policy, or trust, you make a lasting investment in Christ-centered education.

If you have already included Avail Academy in your estate plans, we would be grateful to hear from you so we can honor your intentions and express our thanks.

For more information about planned giving, please contact Greg Leeper (gleeper@availacademy.org), Kevin Distad (kdistad@availacademy.org) or Jeni Kuhfuss (jkuhfuss@availacademy.org) and consult your financial or tax advisor to determine the option that best fits your circumstances.

Avail Academy may be able to accept other in-kind donations, such as real estate and other nonfinancial assets. To make an in-kind donation, please contact Kevin Distad (kdistad@availacademy.org) or Jeni Kuhfuss (jkuhfuss@availacademy.org) to discuss the details, ensure the gift meets school guidelines, and coordinate the transfer. 

Many employers offer matching gift programs that can double — or even triple — the impact of your donation to Avail Academy. If your company participates, you may be able to select Avail Academy as your designated charitable organization and request a match for your contribution.
