Gifts of Securities

By donating long-term appreciated securities, you may be able to increase your gift and your tax deduction as compared to donating in cash. Contact us at [email protected] to donate securities.

Give from your IRA

If you are 70 ½ years of age or older, you can make a tax-free gift from your IRA to a charitable entity of up to $105,000, as adjusted for inflation. Beginning at age 73, such a qualified charitable distribution can satisfy in whole or in part your minimum distribution requirements. Such tax-efficient gifts can enhance your legacy while benefitting the community today.
