What are in-kind donations?
In-kind donations are non-monetary donations made to a nonprofit. This encompasses both tangible donations (goods) and intangible donations (services). Here are a few examples of each type of in-kind gift:
- Goods can include gifts of office supplies, equipment, food items, clothing, and other tangible items.
- Services usually include donations of pro bono work, such as free financial assistance or graphic design support.
No matter their nature, in-kind donations can help you better serve your community, supplement your internal expertise, and supply your fundraising efforts with the resources and support United Way needs to succeed.
