Emergency Food Pantry / Grocery Delivery Fund
SilverSource has mounted a rapid response to the Covid-19 health emergency that profoundly threatens the seniors we serve – transforming our conference room into an Emergency Food Pantry and developing a Grocery Delivery system to meet the urgent needs of older residents who are unable to leave their homes.
Many are asking us how they may support us in these efforts. At this time, the best way the community may support our work is through monetary donations.

Thank you for your support!
All of us at SilverSource are so grateful for your partnership and commitment to the work we do.
Because of your generosity, SilverSource is able to assist more than 1,800 older residents each year, handling over 2,000 cases to keep a roof over their heads, with the heat and lights on, food on the table and the medical care they need.
Gifts of Stocks or Securities
Making a gift of stocks or securities can be a very attractive way of contributing to SilverSource.
Donating stock that has been held for more than a year allows you to avoid capital gains tax. You can also claim an income tax deduction for the fair market value of the stock on the date it was transferred, not just for its value when you acquired it.
To donate stock to SilverSource, please follow our Stock Transfer Instructions.
Please contact Marianne Delaney if you plan to donate stock: mdelaney@silversource.org or 203.324.6584
Planned Giving
Many donors support SilverSource with Planned Gifts. Even those with modest resources can make a charitable bequest to SilverSource. Your gift will support our mission to provide a safety net to older residents, into the future.
Here you will find information about the more common types of Planned Giving Bequests with sample language for making a bequest to SilverSource.
