Donors should find a qualified appraiser to examine their objects prior to donation. Any information concerning the value of any object donated or a potential donation cannot be provided by ACE, as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) considers such activity by a 501(c)(3) nonprofit to be a conflict of interest.

IRS statutes require that household items and clothing contributed to ACE must be in at least good used condition to be deductible. This requirement does not apply to contributions of paintings, antiques, other art objects, jewelry and gems, or collections, and does not apply to the contribution of an item for which a deduction of more than $500 is claimed if the taxpayer obtains a qualified appraisal of the item.

Please note that all donations become a part of ACE's archives collection and cannot be returned.

Donated items can be used at the club’s discretion to best serve the mission and goals of the organization.

The ACE Archives will not accept materials that are illegal, edible or caustic; that present a danger to the collections or to the archive facility; or that require a means of storage or preservation that is beyond the financial or physical resources of the archives to provide.

Monetary donations are always welcome and appreciated. ACE maintains separate donation fund accounts earmarked for specific purposes, and donations may be made to any of these funds.

Further information regarding ACE's fundraising compliance is available here.
Monetary donations are accepted anytime. ACE also accepts financial donations of securities, wills and estate planning.

Funds collected on behalf of the NRCMA are forwarded by ACE to its partner organization on a quarterly basis.

Employee matching gift programs are corporate giving programs in which the company matches donations or volunteer time worked by employees to benefit eligible nonprofit organizations. An employer matching donation is an easy way to increase your contribution to ACE. Requesting a matching gift is normally a short process that must be initiated by the donor. You can do this by filling out and submitting a paper match form provided by your employer or through an electronic submission process. ACE’s contact information is listed below.

In compliance with IRS regulations regarding charitable contributions, ACE affirms that no goods or services are provided to you in consideration for your gift. ACE is an exempt organization under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and your donation may qualify as a charitable deduction for tax purposes
