Have you thought about the benefits of gifting investments to Youthlinc? Donating appreciated investments is an easy way to maximize your donation. By donating investments you have held for more than one year, you may be able to give more than if you sold the investment to make a cash donation (potentially 20%+ due to tax savings).  If you are 70 ½ or older, you can also donate up to $100,000 directly from your IRA without incurring taxes (Qualified Charitable Distribution) and will count towards your required minimum distribution.

One quick phone call can transfer these investments to Youthlinc and help us to achieve our capital campaign goals. Want to learn more? Contact Patti Monsoor at pattim@youthlinc.org.
