You can help support and sustain children and the families who care for them, and make a meaningful difference for generations to come. What’s more, your gift can offer tax benefits today or be structured as a future gift that also provides advantages for your loved ones.
You can learn more about these special opportunities in our free brochure, Tax-Wise Ways to Make an Impact, and other complimentary planning resources. These resources are just a click away!
Stocks and Securities
When you give stock or securities (stock, bonds, mutual funds), you may be eligible for a double tax benefit: 1) You receive an income tax deduction for the full, present, fair market value of the assets and 2) you may completely avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation of the assets. This is one of the easiest gifts to give and one of the most useful in accomplishing your philanthropic goals.
Retirement Assets
A gift of your retirement assets, such as an employee retirement plan, IRA, or tax-sheltered annuity, is an excellent way to make a gift. A gift of these assets can shield you or your heirs from taxes while funding the Foundation for DePelchin Children’s Center.
Life Insurance
Transfer ownership now:
To make an impact on our mission today, irrevocably designate the Foundation for DePelchin Children’s Center as owner and beneficiary of an existing life insurance policy. If your policy is paid up, you will receive an immediate income tax deduction based on the policy value.
If your policy is not yet paid up, you will make contributions of cash to DePelchin to cover future premium payments. For any continuing premium payments you make, you will receive a charitable deduction in the year of the payment.
Name us as a beneficiary:
You can name the Foundation for DePelchin Children’s Center as a beneficiary of all or a portion of your life insurance policy. With this gift arrangement, DePelchin will receive the proceeds of your policy when you pass away. You can change your beneficiary at any time.
This gift is easy to arrange — simply request a beneficiary designation form from your plan administrator.
Personal Property
A gift of artwork, coins, antiques, or other personal property can be an excellent way to support DePelchin. The tax benefits of the gift depend on whether the Foundation for DePelchin Children’s Center can use the property in a way that is related to its mission. Contact us to learn more about this type of gift — we would be happy to help you find the option that best fits your philanthropic goals.
From a Supporter Like You
Mary and Jim Henderson have been faithful supporters of DePelchin for many years, with Jim actively serving on the board of the DePelchin Children’s Center Foundation. Recently, they chose to deepen their commitment by designating a percentage of their IRAs to support DePelchin’s mission, a meaningful way to ensure their impact continues for generations to come.
