Friends Drive

Memorial Gifts

Memorial gifts honor the memory of deceased loved ones. The family of your loved one receives a personal letter regarding the gift.

Art Program

AIM Center's Art Program is 100% privately funded and offered twice a week. A choice of art projects and materials for the beginner to the advanced artist is provided at each class session. We have an all member show for those interested in showing and selling annually. Gifts to this program are used to purchase art supplies and cover wages of an art instructor.

Building Futures Campaign - Complete the Dream

A $1,750,000 project to meet the demand for psychiatric rehabilitation services in the Greater Chattanooga community by renovating 16,500 S.F. of unfinished space in the AIM facility. A 115% increase in service participation has occurred since relocation in September 2007 to the new site at 472 W MLK Boulevard which requires additional renovations and build-out. Currently, admissions have been frozen for individuals who have no insurance benefits which is 42% of the population served.

Stocks, Bonds, or Mutual funds

Stocks, bonds or mutual funds offer a way to both give to AIM Center and receive tax benefits based on the asset’s value. Electronic funds transfer is available, please call Ashley Evans at 423-702-8019 for transfer instructions.

Matching Gifts

Planned Giving

Planned gifts are deferred gifts made through a bequest in your will. The gift may be a percentage of your estate, a specific dollar amount, or a gift of specific assets like real estate or art. You may also give through your life insurance policy— an option with significant financial and tax benefits.

It is very important that the bequest language include the exact legal name of the charity and its complete address. When including a bequest provision in your will, always use the full legal name and provide the federal taxpayer identification number. Our full, legal name is: “The A.I.M. Center, Inc” Our federal tax identification number is: 58-1718368.

If you have already included the AIM Center in your estate plans we hope that you will let us know so that we can thank you for your generous intentions.

Individual financial circumstances vary. The information on this site does not constitute legal or tax advice. It is highly recommended that donors consult with their own tax or legal advisors prior to making a planned gift.
