Now is the perfect time to think about and plan for 2025 charitable giving. There are a variety of options to tithe from a work bonus, get an early start on giving for the year, set up recurring gifts through a Donor Advised Fund, bless others, and benefit from attractive tax deductions. Charitable gifts provide the opportunity for you to make a difference in the lives of others, show generosity, and support needs within your church and community.
It is easy to become overwhelmed with donation requests from great organizations, but when and where is the best place to start? One way to begin the process is by thinking of the things you are most passionate about, then finding a church ministry or charitable organization that is meeting those needs and goals.
Giving Tips
- Set a giving goal and decide how much you want to give ahead of time
- Look for a church ministry or organization that matches your goals, passion, and values
- Research how and what the donation will be used for within the organization
- Research different ways to give such as legacy giving, IRA QCD gifts, Donor Advised Funds, Stock gifts, and more (as well as any potential tax benefits) that benefit both you and the organization. For a list of giving options, visit: www.alwfumf.org/ways-to-give
- Give throughout the year or save funds to make a larger overall year-end gift
- Request a donation receipt
