Ways to Give

Mid-Shore Community Foundation works with individuals, families, and organizations to establish charitable funds for the region. Giving comes in all shapes and sizes, and we offer a variety of options to help people achieve their charitable goals. You can make a gift of cash, stocks, real estate, or other assets and most gifts qualify for maximum tax advantages.

Donate to an Existing Fund

You can make a gift, in any amount, to any of the existing funds at the Foundation. You can make a gift in support of the Mid-Shore Community Foundation, or you can designate your gift to benefit a specific county - Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne’s, or Talbot.
