THE GIFT OF LAND - a gift that will keep on giving.
Do you own land zoned and suitable for building homes? One
day, if you decide to sell all or part of it, you will be required to pay
Capital Gains tax on it's appreciated value. We're a
nonprofit charity. By either gifting to Habitat, or selling a portion of your
land to us below market value, you can take a tax deduction of the value of the
gift, tremendously offsetting your tax liability. In many cases, such a
gift can eliminate the Capital Gains tax entirely, essentially costing you
nothing - it merely goes to Habitat instead of the Tax Man. We can put you in
touch with qualified investment professionals that will assist you in
doing this the right way. Habitat for Humanity in Whatcom County cannot build
homes without land. Our prayer is that God will touch the hearts
of land owners to donate a building parcel today.
PLANNED GIVING - The opportunity to direct your
wealth when you no longer need it.
IRA Charitable Rollover - a way to capture
tax savings and benefit very poor people in need of simple, decent housing.
Speak with your legal, tax or financial advisor for more information.
Another gifting option is to include us in your will
for an on-going memorial in the future. Land, securities,
valuables, personal possessions or assets, money - your attorney can assist you
in your desire to leave a legacy. Imagine the difference you
could make in many people's lives long after you are
gone.
VALUABLES, APPRECIATED SECURITIES, and nearly
anything of value.
Your gift today of jewelry, securities, automobiles, appliances, or other items, which we can sell for cash, is tax-deductible. You can donate cash by check or online and you will be mailed a receipt
for tax purposes. See below for the best option, or phone our office if you have
an item to donate.
Thank
you!
