Lunch is Served!

Thanks to your generosity, ASEB was able to purchase this new buffet cart for its Berkeley site!

Social Worker Geri Degen says the new cart creates a more formal and enjoyable lunch experience for the participants. “It’s more calm and pleasant at lunchtime. The food looks and smells better. It also tastes better, due to the fact that it is kept hotter.”

Dietary aide Martha Gonzales agrees, adding, “It makes my job easier because the participants can see that they are about to be served, and it is more peaceful.” Indeed, when our photographer wanted to capture an image of the new buffet cart, he noticed a near-reverential hush fall upon the room as the new star of lunchtime rolled in with its entourage in tow.

We still need to raise the funds to purchase a cart for our Hayward site, but we are almost to our goal! Please visit gofundme and give today to help us make lunchtime a little more special for our families.

Recurring Gifts

Recurring gifts provide ASEB with solid, predictable income that doesn’t require mailings or other outreach to secure—allowing us to allocate more of every dollar to serving our participants and their families.

Honor and Memory Gifts

A tribute or memorial donation is a meaningful way to honor someone special in your life or to commemorate an important occasion, such as a wedding anniversary or birthday. We will send acknowledgment of your gift to whomever you designate.

Workplace Giving

Many take part in workplace giving campaigns with monthly gifts deducted from their paychecks. For United Way and other corporate campaigns, ASEB’s code number is 2234. The Combined Federal Campaign number is 9006. Or, you may write in “Alzheimer’s Services of the East Bay” and our phone number (510) 644-8292.

Matching Funds

Your gift can work twice as hard if your employer has a policy of matching employee’s charitable contributions.

Stock Transfers

Stock transfers allow you to maximize the advantages of giving. You can avoid paying capital gains tax while still receiving a tax deduction if you give stock that has appreciated in value.

Planned Giving

Include a gift to ASEB in your will, either with a percent of your estate, a cash gift, or a gift of life insurance. Establishing a trust or donating a life insurance policy now, has immediate tax advantages. ASEB’s Federal ID number is 94-3081330.

Car Donations

Donate your car or truck. Please call us at (510) 644-8292, or toll-free to Donate For Charity at (866) 392-4483 to make an appointment to have your vehicle picked up (be sure to mention Alzheimer’s Services of the East Bay!). Vehicle donations are fully tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law.

Clothing Donations

Our Berkeley site has a clothing donation bin out front where you may deposit your unneeded clothing. ASEB receives a small payment for every pound of clothing donated to this bin.

In-kind Donations

Gifts of services, products and food are also welcome.

ASEB is proud to meet all of the Better Business Bureau’s “Wise Giving Alliance Standards for Charity Accountability.”
