What does AAKP do with my donation?

Your contribution to AAKP allows us to continue to help improve the lives of patients and family members by helping them manage the physical, emotional and social impact of kidney disease.  

How do I join the Samuel Orenstein Legacy Program?

There are three different ways that you may join the Samuel Orenstein Legacy Program. 

• You may make a monthly credit card gift by using the electronic form accessed through Make a Monthly Gift Online Form. Upon completion you will receive an electronic confirmation letter. 
• If you do not wish to fill out the online form you can download the Samuel Orenstein Legacy Monthly Donor form and return to the AAKP office. 
• You may also call the office at (800)-749-2257 and request to join the Samuel Orenstein Legacy Donor Program. 

Is my gift tax-deductible?

Yes AAKP is recognized as tax exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue code.  If you qualify for a free year membership, $25 of your total donation is not considered tax-deductible.
 
When will my online credit card gift be transacted?

Upon the successful completion of your first online monthly gift, your subsequent gifts will process on the 15th of each month. Also, you will receive a monthly email to confirm that your gift has been made. If for some reason we are unable to process your gift, we will send you an email requesting new information.

How do I change my online credit card information?

To access your credit card information used for your monthly gifts, please retrieve your last email from AAKP acknowledging your gift with the donation page link at the bottom.  At the donation page you will find a login box to access your account information.  There you will be able to modify your name and address and access your present credit card information being used.

If you cannot locate login box or are unable to access your information, please call us at 800-749-AAKP to implement the desired change.

When will my credit card gift be charged to my account?

Legacy Circle credit card gifts are generally processed on the 15th of each calendar month, and a year-end gift statement is provided to you annually.

How do I increase my monthly, online gift amount?

Please contact the Samuel Orenstein Legacy Program via phone or fax with your new gift amount along with your mailing address associated with your monthly gifts. Most requests take between two to three weeks to complete, and the new amount will be effective with your next scheduled gift. You will receive confirmation of the change made to your account.

How do I stop giving through automatic gift payments made through my credit card?

To stop your automatic gift payments please email your request with your name, mailing address, current gift payment method, along with your pledge amount to info@aakp.org or mail your request to the AAKP, Samuel Orenstein Legacy Program (see address below).

What are the free membership restrictions?

A free year membership is offered after you have made a monthly donation of at least $30 for four consecutive months.  If you are already a member, your free membership will be added onto your current membership.
