Stock, Real Estate & Other Assets

Increase your potential impact – and experience significant tax savings – by giving assets other than cash.

"...consider the lilies of the field, how they grow..." Matthew 6:28 (ESV)

Most people give to charity in the form of cash because it is so familiar. However, this may not be the most cost-effective way for you to give. You can increase your potential impact – and experience significant tax savings – by giving non-cash assets.

Examples of Non-Cash Assets

  • Stock or marketable securities
  • Real estate
  • Business interests
  • Farm commodities
  • Cryptocurrency
  • Retirement benefits, such as Gifts From Your IRA

Benefits of Giving Non-Cash Assets

  • Tax-wise. Receive a fair market value deduction and avoid the tax liability on the sale of appreciated assets.
  • Eliminate hassles. Give assets you no longer need or care to manage (such as rental properties or vacation homes) for the benefit of your favorite causes.

Gifts That Reduce Taxes

Multiply the impact of your generosity, while eliminating cost and stress.
