WHAT OTHERS SAY

There must be a lot of people like me in the community. You don’t have to have a lot of money to enjoy the rewards of philanthropy. By planning today for my personal finances and my charitable giving, I can enjoy the money I have. And best of all, I feel just like Bill Gates.
-- Jean Johnson, Legacy Society Member

 
What You May Give

Gifts may be accepted to establish charitable funds at the Foundation from any of the following:

  • Stocks
  • Bonds
  • Life Insurance
  • Real Property -- Homes, Farms, Undeveloped Properties, Commercial Properties, 2nd Residences, Condominiums, Town Homes
  • Personal Property -- Artwork, Jewelry, Boats, Furniture, Equipment

Many of the types of gifts listed above may be appreciated assets. Gifts of appreciated assets are an advantage to the donor because they result in a tax deduction for the “full market value” of the asset. The donor is not taxed on any of the appreciation the property has gained since purchase.
