Contribute Complex Assets to Your Fund
You can contribute assets other than cash to your fund.
Charitable giving encompasses more than just cash donations. You may be able to attain a new level of giving you may not have considered possible through assets you already own.

Benefits
You may be able to avoid capital gains tax on gifts of appreciated assets. We look at each donation individually to maximize your donation and tax-related benefits. The Community Foundation is a public charity, so you are eligible to receive the maximum tax deduction allowed by law for your donation.
We do not provide tax, legal or accounting advice. This is for informational purposes only.
