Memorial & Honor Gifts:
One of the unique characteristics of Goodland Academy is that no boy is ever denied an education because of financial difficulties, especially if they can benefit from a caring home environment like the one we offer. In order to keep this door of opportunity open for our young people we must seek financial support by other sources of income other than tuition. Over the years, one of Goodland Academy's primary sources for student scholarship aid has been memorial and honor gifts.
We can think of no finer means of remembering a deceased friend or loved one than through a memorial gift to help the young people of Goodland Academy. And the same holds true for honoring a friend or loved one on a special occasion (birthdays, anniversaries, promotions, etc.). In either case, the family of the deceased or the honoree are promptly notified of your thoughtfulness. . . and the amount of your gift is never disclosed.

In addition, all memorial and honor gifts will be listed in the next issue of the monthly Goodland Gazette.

Make a gift of stock:
Many donors make their gift to Goodland Academy in the form of securities, just as many of our donors have done in recent months. The benefits for making a gift of an appreciated stock to the Academy are many and include avoidance of capital gains tax. Long-term, appreciated securities can be used to make a gift to the the Academy, thus avoiding the capital gains tax on the securities that would result if the same stock was sold and you gave the proceeds to Goodland. A donor is entitled to a charitable tax deduction equal to the value of the securities on the date of transfer to Goodland Academy.
Please let us know what type of stock will be transferred, the number of shares and an approximate amount. If you have any questions or to alert us of a transfer, please contact David Dearinger at (580) 326-7568 or email him by clicking here.
