Contributions
to the Foundation are tax deductible as charitable contributions from
U.S. taxpayers to the extent allowed by law. The Foundation is also able
to accept corporate contributions, gifts and bequests.
In recognition of the personal
contributions and achievements of individuals in the milling industry,
the Foundation has established a memorial contribution category. A
memorial is a monetary gift offered in memory of an individual who is no
longer with us, but whose life made an impact, a difference, in the
milling industry. Memorial gifts can be made by friends, relatives,
co-workers, or districts to recognize the work and contributions of such
an individual.
I would like to make a contribution to IMEF.
