YEAR-END GIVING TIPS
- Complete gifts before December 31, 2010 for tax benefits.
- Do you know you can increase your income while supporting your church in the future? Consider the variety of gift options that can actually increase your income, such as the charitable gift annuity or charitable remainder trust.
- Evaluate giving long term appreciated assets rather than cash. You may realize income tax savings by claiming the fair market value as the contribution and avoid the capital gain recognition - a double benefit. Still need income for yourself or othrs? Talk with us about options that pay income.
- Give directly to your church from an IRA. Charitable donations can be made from your IRA in 2010 if you are over age 70 1/2. Please talk to your tax advisor and direct your gift from the IRA custodian well before year end.
