Donating non-cash assets offers significant tax advantages, as well as the opportunity to deepen your commitment to your charitable legacy. Complex asset contributions include:
Private / Pre-IPO Stock
LLC and Limited Partnership interests
Private Equity, Hedge Fund, and Venture Capital Fund interests
Real Estate
Life Insurance
Retirement assets
Royalties
As early as practical, request an introduction. Request an introduction to Charitable Solutions via your Charityvest account. Please fill in any available details regarding the possible donation.
Receive consultation on gift process, timing, and fees. Charitable Solutions will cover the process and potential transaction with you, including a timeline and gift processing fees. There is no cost or obligation to receive this consultation.
Charitable Solutions receives and liquidates the donation, transferring proceeds to your account. Once the asset is sold, the proceeds will be posted to your giving account, net of processing fees, and will be available for granting. Charitable Solutions will provide gift acknowledgment to substantiate the donation for tax purposes.
