Tax-Smart Ways to Give

Tax-Smart Ways to Give

Transfer Appreciated Assets

Many donors prefer to make gifts of appreciated stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or exchange traded funds because it can have a large impact on our mission, while maximizing potential tax benefits by avoiding paying tax on capital gains.

If you would like to transfer your appreciated assets, please contact Jenna Hardy at [email protected]

Give from your IRA

Donors 70½ or older are eligible to give to Make-A-Wish Colorado from their IRAs tax-free! These gifts, also known as Qualified Charitable Distributions, are always tax-free, regardless of whether or not you itemize deductions on your tax return.
