Ways to Give

List of 4 items.

• Corporate Matching Gifts

  Donors who work for an employer with a matching gift program can double or even triple the impact of their philanthropic gift. Thousands of companies offer corporate matching gift programs at a 1:1 ratio, but some will match at 2:1, 3:1 or even 4:1 for eligible nonprofit organizations. Check with your employer about matching gift opportunities and make your gift at least twice as far! 

• Donation of Appreciated Stock

  The most tax-efficient way to make charitable contributions is by donating stock that has realized significant appreciation over time. Any appreciated securities with unrealized gains may be donated to a public charity and a tax deduction may be taken for the full fair market value of the securities—up to 30% of the donor’s adjusted gross income. Since the securities are donated rather than sold, capital gains taxes from selling the securities no longer apply. The more appreciation the securities have, the greater the tax savings will be. Please consider donating appreciated stock to Beth Tfiloh to maximize your giving.

• Donor Advised Funds

  Donor-advised funds (DAF) are a philanthropic investment account that allows donors to make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and designate grants from the fund over time.  If you have a philanthropic fund please consider using it to make meaningful gifts to Beth Tfiloh. 

• IRA Qualified Charitable Distribution

  For donors over 72 with IRA’s and have a required minimum distribution, please consider directing your withdraw for a charitable purpose at Beth Tfiloh to avoid paying taxes on the amount transferred.
