Find the Gift for You
Let's Partner On A Giving Plan That Aligns Your Goals With Your Needs
There are a variety of ways to make a gift. While cash is the most common, you may not be aware of the advantages of donating other assets. Many options can provide income during your lifetime or significant tax benefits — or both. We can help you determine the best type of gift for your personal situation. Please consult your family, your CPA, wealth advisor, and trusts & estates attorneys and then start a conversation with our Development Team. Email or call Director of Development Laura Gillespie at 802-478-1803.
The information below is intended for general guidance and informational purposes only, and under no circumstances should be considered direct financial or investment advice, a recommendation to donate, or a solicitation of any non-cash assets.
Non-cash Gifts That Are Ideal For Donation Often Look Like This:
- They have a low-cost basis, which means they were purchased or received at a much lower price than they are worth today.
- They have long-term capital gains, which means they have been held for over a year and have appreciated in value.
- The owner would incur capital gains tax if the asset were sold. There are no capital gains incurred on an outright gift if it is donated!
