Gifts That Reduce Your Taxes

You can help end domestic violence and build healthy communities for survivors. What’s more, you can contribute these generous gifts for others and potentially receive tax benefits to enjoy for yourself!

STOCKS AND BONDS

This is one of the easiest gifts to give and one of the most useful in accomplishing your philanthropic goals. The next time you visit your bank, you can name REACH Beyond Domestic Violence, Inc. (Tax ID: 04-2735449) as the beneficiary of a checking or savings bank account, a certificate of deposit (CD), or a brokerage account.

RETIREMENT ASSETS

A gift of your retirement assets, such as an employee retirement plan, IRA, or tax-sheltered annuity, is an excellent way to make a gift. A gift of these assets can shield you or your heirs from taxes while funding REACH Beyond Domestic Violence.

Naming REACH as a beneficiary of your retirement assets generates no income taxes. Since REACH is tax exempt and eligible to receive the full amount, the full value of your gift will help survivors every day.

LIFE INSURANCE

Life insurance is a valuable asset for making a charitable gift. You can make a gift of a life insurance policy without diminishing other investments or assets earmarked for family members.

REAL ESTATE

You can donate appreciated real estate, such as a home, vacation property, undeveloped land, farmland, ranch, or commercial property. This is an easy and effective way to reduce your taxes, protect your assets, and end domestic violence.
