2024 Giving Opportunities

It’s never too early to explore the many opportunities you have in 2024. Below is a list of resources to get you started as you plan for tax smart giving this year.

Stock and Mutual Fund Giving
Concept Sheet | Video | Stock and Mutual Fund Form
By donating appreciated securities, the capital gains taxes saved could mean more for ministry, and you can claim the value of the donation as a charitable deduction for 2024. Especially now, with current market valuations, donating stock and other non-cash assets is a great way to increase your support for the causes close to your heart.

Real Estate Giving
Concept Sheet | Article: Give Your Real Estate Instead
Many real estate investors have a heart to give charitably but feel hindered by their limited cash flow and growing taxation of their investments. Our team at the National Christian Foundation (NCF) has a solution which allows you to give interests in appreciated real estate (commercial, residential, or undeveloped property).

Business Interest Giving

Many business owners have a heart to give charitably but feel hindered by their limited cash flow and the growing taxation of their businesses. At the National Christian Foundation (NCF), we have an innovative solution that allows you to donate a portion of your business or business interest to us and then typically receive a substantial tax deduction.

IRA Giving

You don’t have to wait until you are 72 to make distributions from your IRA. You can make regular distributions starting at 59½ (and use a charitable gift to offset some or all of the income) and you can make QCDs starting at 70½.
