Gift Assets
Expand your thinking beyond cash:
- You can give appreciated securities instead, using an asset that costs you less than the tax deduction you'll get for it today.
- You can give all, or a portion, of residential, commercial or undeveloped real estate.
- You can give us an interest in a closely-held or family business. You can give us personal property such as rare books, artwork or antiques, and secure a charitable income tax deduction.
You can make a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime:
- Your bequest ensures that we can meet our goals tomorrow without affecting your assets today.
- We offer a wise charitable alternative to the double taxation that awaits your retirement plan in your estate if you have a taxable estate. You can turn unneeded life insurance coverage into a charitable gift to Children's, or use a new policy to create an endowment from income instead of capital.
