Other ways to contribute
- Appreciated Shares: If you hold appreciated publicly traded securities, consider gifting the shares directly to SVHC instead of selling them and donating the proceeds. If held for more than a year, this strategy helps you avoid capital gains taxes while providing a charitable deduction for their fair market value.
- Retirement Account Withdrawals: Donating directly from your tax-deferred retirement accounts can maximize your impact. By contributing from these accounts, you avoid the taxes typically incurred on withdrawals, and reduce your adjusted gross income (AGI).
- Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD): Those aged 72 and older are required to take annual distributions from your IRA. By donating all or part of your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) to SVHC, you lower your AGI, potentially reducing your tax bill while supporting the horses! Individuals can direct up to $105,000 per year, and couples filing jointly can give up to $210,000.
- Name SVHC as a Beneficiary: Consider naming SVHC as a beneficiary of your IRA or retirement plan. This thoughtful legacy ensures your love for the outdoors arts continues to inspire future generations. Because SVHC is a tax-exempt organization, your full contribution will support our mission and programs.
