Welcome to your resource for charitable gift planning!

MADD has a variety of online tools you can access to learn how a gift plan can benefit you and your family, bring immediate and deferred tax advantages, and have a meaningful impact on MADD and our goals and interests.

Here are a few of the advantages of including a gift to MADD in your will:
  • Charitable gifts made through your will are fully deductible for estate tax purposes.
  • A charitable bequest made through your will may place your estate in a lower estate tax bracket. Discuss this issue with your attorney or financial advisor.

Charitable bequests are an important part of MADD's future. They are gifts of life and more. These gifts enable MADD to continue making the nations roads safer for everyone—today and in the decades ahead.
