How to Give

When you donate your appreciated assets, you can avoid paying the capital gains tax. Additionally, if you itemize deductions, you can also take a charitable deduction for the entire donation amount.

When giving stocks or mutual funds, you will receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of your securities at the time of donation, and you will pay no capital gains tax on the difference between your cost and the fair market value.

If you are 70.5 or older, you are eligible to make an IRA contribution that benefits you and helps Christ Community Church make passionate disciples of Jesus Christ. These gifts are tax-free, regardless of whether or not you itemize deductions on your tax return.

For individuals 73 and older who need to fulfill a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) this year — an IRA gift can help meet this requirement and help you avoid a hefty tax penalty at the same time.
