Creative Giving Tools- Cash is a common gift, but you can also donate many other assets, sometimes with significant tax advantages. These can include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, real estate, farm commodities, life insurance, IRAs and other retirement accounts, coins, toys, stamps and other collections. Donating IRA Distributions- A special opportunity to be generous exists for people over the age of 701⁄2 who have a traditional IRA. People who fit this description can make charitable distributions from their traditional IRAs directly to Crooked Creek Christian Camp. Farm Commodities- Farming presents special opportunities to make donations to Crooked Creek Christian Camp and reduce your taxes. You can give gifts of grain, livestock – even honey. Not only do we benefit, but you can also deduct the cost of production of the donated commodities. |
