We encourage you to explore all of the options to financially support HVAF and our veterans.
A gift of securities
You may earn a charitable deduction based on the fair market value on the date of the gift. If you have held the securities for more than a year, you could incur a capital gains tax when you sell the securities. But by giving the appreciated value to a charity, you could avoid that capital gains tax.
Establishment of a charitable trust
You may earn a charitable deduction based on the fair market value on the date of the gift. If you have held the securities for more than a year, you could incur a capital gains tax when you sell the securities. But by giving the appreciated value to a charity, you could avoid that capital gains tax.
A gift of life insurance
You may earn a charitable deduction based on the fair market value on the date of the gift. If you have held the securities for more than a year, you could incur a capital gains tax when you sell the securities. But by giving the appreciated value to a charity, you could avoid that capital gains tax.
An IRA rollover gift
As part of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, individuals age 70 or older may transfer up to $100,000 from a traditional or Roth IRA directly to HVAF without claiming the transfer as income
Charitable gift annuity
If you are 65 years old or above, you can earn guaranteed income for life and a charitable tax deduction now – all while helping HVAF. It is also an alternative if you are seeking to reduce your stock exposure. (Minimum deposit of $10,000 required to set up annuity.)
Their program is ending homelessness, and that’s what they did.
