Whether you’re planning your estate or ready to recommend a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) gift, it’s simple to make a lasting difference.
Your generosity today can ensure health and hope for generations to come. By including Advance Community in your will, you are creating a future where every person is thriving, creating new possibilities, and promising futures.
Making a will is an important step, and it doesn’t have to be complicated. With our trusted partner FreeWill.com, you can create a free, simple, and legally valid will in just 20 minutes.
DAF gifts are a tax-smart way to give, allowing you to make a larger impact at a lower personal financial cost. Deposit cash and non-cash assets to your Donor-Advised Fund over time, and receive tax deductions and other benefits from your contributions. If you have a Donor-Advised fund, you can make a gift directly to Advance Community or name us as a beneficiary. Reach out to your fund manager to get started.
Make a Meaningful Impact with Your IRA
If you’re age 70 ½ or older, making a gift from your IRA to Advance Community is a powerful way to help families around the world thrive while also enjoying unique tax advantages.
How It Works: You can transfer up to $108,000 per year directly from your IRA to Advance Community—$216,000 for married couples with separate IRAs. This transfer, known as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), must go directly from your IRA to us to qualify. While it doesn’t count as a charitable tax deduction, it also doesn’t count as taxable income, helping reduce your overall tax burden. If you’re age 73 or older, your QCD can also count toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). Your legacy can change lives today. Talk to your IRA administrator or financial advisor about how to start giving directly to Advance Community through a QCD.
