Non-Cash Giving
There are so many ways to use your investments for good when you donate to the LPS Foundation. We accept stock appreciation gifts, monies from a donor-advised fund, qualified charitable donations and planned gifts.
-
STOCKA charitable gift of appreciated stock can be advantageous for you and the LPS Foundation. As long as you’ve owned the stock for more than a year, you can donate shares directly to the LPS Foundation and may be able to avoid paying capital gains taxes. Win/win.
-
DONOR-ADVISED FUNDSA donor-advised fund (DAF) is like a charitable investment account. It provides flexibility and convenience by allowing you to make a deductible contribution today and invest your contribution so it can potentially grow tax-free over time.
-
IRAsIf you are 70 ½ or older, you can give to a nonprofit organization via a qualified charitable distribution (QCD). QCDs can be counted toward satisfying your required minimum distributions (RMDs) for the year, reducing your tax liability.
-
PLANNED GIFTSA legacy gift gives you the chance to have a significant impact without expending any resources today. Contact Beth Best, Executive Director at 303-347-3478 or bbest@lps.k12.co.us for more information about leaving a legacy for LPS students.
Donations can be subject to certain restrictions, so please check with a tax advisor for specifics. This is not tax advice so consult with your tax advisor before implementing any of these strategies.
