Set Up A Donor Advised Fund
Here’s a great place to start: The National Philanthropic Trust
1) Non-Cash Gifts
You can give non-cash gifts such as real estate, stocks and crypto to Kings Ransom through a Donor Advised Fund.
Your benefit is to avoid selling assets and incurring tax and you would receive a full deduction for the gift as long as you owned the asset for at least one year.
2) Large One-Time Donations
Many donors do not receive a deduction for their charitable giving because the giving does not exceed their standard deduction. Assume you give $500 per month, for a total of $6000 per year and that you have a mortgage and pay $1500 per month in interest. At the end of the year, you would have a potential deduction of $6000 (donation) and $18,000 (mortgage interest) for a total of $24,000. In 2023, the standard deduction for a married couple was $27,700 and you would receive no tax benefits.
With that same scenario, you open a donor-advised fund and donate $24,000 one-time to fund four years of giving. You instruct the fund to make monthly $500 grants to King’s Ransom. You would receive a charitable deduction of $24,000. In addition, your donation would earn interest and over time, the donation to King’s Ransom could be increased.
Employer Matching
Many employers will match at least a part of their employees’ charitable donations, and we have an automated system that will find out if yours is one of them.
