Streamlining Charitable Giving for Maximum Impact
Facilitating Meaningful Gifts for Your Organization
As your local Community Foundation we partner with nonprofits in our service area to help facilitate complex charitable gifts from their donors. Many donors want to give in ways beyond cash contributions, and not all organizations have the infrastructure to accept these gifts directly. That’s where we come in. Our experienced team ensures that these gifts are processed efficiently, securely, and in alignment with both donor intent and nonprofit needs. Whether it's stock donations, real estate, or planned giving, we provide the expertise to make giving easier for both donors and the organizations they care about.
Stock Gifts
Many donors choose to give stock for the potential tax benefits—allowing them to avoid capital gains taxes while still receiving a fair market value tax deduction. However, not all nonprofits are equipped to accept stock gifts directly. We can accept stock on behalf of your organization, handle the transaction, and forward the proceeds from the sale to you, ensuring a smooth and beneficial process for all parties involved.
Other Complex Forms of Giving
Some donors may wish to explore more sophisticated charitable giving options, such as charitable trusts, gifts of real estate, charitable annuities, or donor-advised funds. Our team of philanthropic advisors is here to guide your organization and its donors through these options, ensuring they are used effectively to support your mission. We help donors understand how these tools can maximize both their philanthropic impact and financial benefits while keeping the process simple for your organization.
Estate and Legacy Planning
Planned gifts can provide long-term support for your organization while giving donors the peace of mind that their legacy will endure. Through our foundation, donors can establish legacy gifts that will continue to benefit your nonprofit for generations to come. With our oversight and fiduciary responsibility, they can be confident that their intentions will be honored and their impact sustained.
