Would you like to make a positive change in someone else life? Looking for a meaningful way to honor a loved one’s memory or to commemorate a holiday, birthday, wedding, or other special occasion? Making a donation as a gift for someone is the perfect way to celebrate a loved one while supporting the life-saving work and mission of the Melese Duressa Foundation and its subsidiary companies.

What are the ways to make a tribute donation?

A tribute donation is a meaningful way to help the Melese Duressa Foundation and its subsidiary companies respond to crises and emergencies, in celebration of someone you love.

Gift for a special person

You can show someone that you’re thinking of them by donating to Melese Duressa Institute in their honor.

Honor the memory of someone

By giving in memory of a loved one who has passed, you not only carry on their legacy but support Melese Duressa Institute’s life-saving work and mission as well as developments.

How to donate in honor of someone

When you donate in honor or celebration of someone, we send a tribute certificate or e-Card, letting them know about your gift. If you prefer, you have the option to remain anonymous. Once we’ve processed your gift, we’ll send you an acknowledgment letter that serves as your tax receipt.

Will my gift recipient see how much I donated in their honor?

No. When you make a tribute donation, the amount of the gift only appears on the acknowledgment letter/tax receipt we send directly to you. Your gift recipient receives a separate letter or confirmation that does not include the amount.
