Fair Market Value

As a valued Bing Circle member, you have access to exclusive benefits, including complimentary tickets to Bing Fling, our annual recognition event. This event features a cocktail reception, a seated dinner, and prime seating for an exceptional performance in Bing Concert Hall. Each Bing Fling ticket is currently valued at $500.

Members have the option to decline these benefits when making their gift, which would allow for the entire contribution to be fully tax-deductible. In this case, no tangible benefits would be offered.

Additionally, membership gifts received through donor advised funds, a private or family foundation, or IRAs are fully tax-deductible, and as such, benefits are automatically waived. However, if a Bing Circle member wishes to purchase tickets to the event separately, they may have the opportunity to do so. For more information, please see our guidelines.
