A longtime presence in New York City, Doonan Tax Services recently expanded and moved to a new location in the Bronx. In addition to meeting the tax needs of clients throughout the tri-state area, Doonan Tax Services works to give back to the community. The firm is especially committed to supporting the U.S. military.
Individuals who would like to help provide for those who serve the country have many ways to do so. Donating to military families financially is one of the easiest and most popular ways to support the troops, but there are a few things to consider before making a donation.
Currently, there are more than 400,000 military-focused charities in operation. With so many organizations to choose from, it can be difficult to decide where to donate. If in doubt, groups such as Army Emergency Relief and the Navy and Marine Corps Relief Society are excellent options to consider because they provide a variety of important assistance services to military members and their families.
Another option is to give to the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC), a workplace-giving program that benefits over 20,000 military charities. Federal employees can sign up to have a portion of their paycheck donated to the CFC, which makes supporting the campaign very easy to do. Of course, giving intelligently is important regardless of how one chooses to support service members. With a little research, however, donors can ensure that the charity they are supporting pursues a mission they believe in.
