Looking to take flight and support the AMA Foundation this fall? There are several smart, non-cash ways that can help you make an incredible difference in our work, and you'll unlock significant tax benefits that go beyond a traditional cash or credit card donation!
Before the end of the year, explore these tax-savvy giving options to directly benefit your own financial planning and the AMA Foundation.
- Appreciated Stock: Transferring stock directly lets you completely bypass capital gains taxes and deduct the full market value.
- IRA Qualified Charitable Distributions: Give directly from your IRA, and if you have a Required Minimum Distribution, you can satisfy it without increasing your taxable income.
- Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs): Instantly recommend a grant from your DAF to deploy existing funds for the joy of model aviation.
- Cryptocurrency: Avoid capital gains taxes entirely by donating your cryptocurrency directly to the AMA Foundation.
