What to Give

Find out what types of assets make the best gifts.

Gifts of Stocks and Bonds

Donating appreciated securities, including stocks or bonds, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift to our organization.

Gifts of Real Estate

Donating appreciated real estate, such as a home, vacation property, undeveloped land, farmland, ranch or commercial property can make a great gift to our organization.

Gifts of Retirement Assets

Donating part or all of your unused retirement assets such as a gift from your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), pension or other tax-deferred plan is an excellent way to make a gift to our organization.

Gifts of Cash

A gift of cash is a simple and easy way for you to make a gift.

Gifts of Life Insurance

A gift of your life insurance policy is an excellent way to make a gift to our organization. If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, consider making a gift of your insurance policy. For example, you may have purchased a policy to provide for minor children and they are now financially independent adults.

Gifts of Business Interests

As a business owner, you have the opportunity not only to build your business and accumulate wealth for yourself and your family, but also to accomplish your philanthropic goals through charitable planning. A gift of your corporate stock or assets can provide you with tax and income benefits and help further our mission.

Gifts of Mineral Interests

A gift of mineral interests (oil, gas, gold, silver or other precious metals) is an excellent way to make a charitable gift.

Gifts of Farm Interests

Donating your farm interests, including land, grain, machinery, livestock and your farm, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift.
