GIFTS
OF SECURITIES
Gifts
of securities, especially appreciated stock, offer two distinct advantages to
the donor:
•
a charitable income tax deduction;
•
elimination of capital gains tax.
GIFTS
OF OTHER CAPITAL ASSETS
It
may be to your advantage to make a gift of other capital assets.
These assets include real estate, works of art, insurance, antiques,
jewelry, etc. The advantages of any particular gift depends on the donor's
circumstances. One's estate assets may be distributed over the owner's lifetime
in order to reduce future estate taxes and administrative costs.
LIFE
INSURANCE
A
donor may name the Southfield
Kappa Foundation irrevocably as the owner and beneficiary of
a life insurance policy. The present cash surrender value of the policy is
deductible as a charitable contribution to the Southfield
Kappa Foundation. If the donor
elects to continue to pay premiums after donating the policy, the premiums are
deductible also.
BEQUESTS
A
donor may add the Southfield
Kappa Foundation to his will as a beneficiary or contingent
beneficiary. Bequest may be used to establish named gift funds (e.g. scholarship
fund) or memorial funds.
MATCHING
GIFTS
Many
companies have a program which matches gifts to non-profit tax-exempt
organizations. This information and the appropriate forms are available in your
employer's personnel department.
Donors
should consult their tax advisor
about
the specific effect
of charitable gifts to their
personal circumstances.
