A gift of appreciated securities can provide a great tax advantage. These gifts are deductible for federal tax purposes up to a limit of 30 percent of your adjusted gross income each year. If you itemize, you receive a charitable tax deduction for the full value of your gift just as you would with cash, provided you have owned the securities for more than 12 months.
Endowments allow your gifts to support the parish for many years. Investment earnings on endowment funds provide income that can support life-impacting ministry each year, while the principal grows in perpetuity and is never spent. Endowments are a true legacy gift.
A bequest to our parish can be made through your will or trust, and is fully deductible for estate tax purposes. All bequests of any size are appreciated and important. Endowments may also be set up through wills or trusts.
Consider an endowment in memory or in honor of a loved one. There is no minimum gift requirement for this and it is a creative, non-traditional gift. Give a Memorial Gift here.
If you are 70 1/2 or older and have a traditional or Roth IRA, you can make gifts directly to charitable recipients – including our parish – from these accounts on a totally tax free basis. Couples with separate IRAs can each give also. Taking advantage of this opportunity can be especially attractive if withdrawals in past years have caused your Social Security income to be taxed at higher rates, or if you have reached the limit for the amount of charitable gifts you can deduct.
