Articles on Charitable Giving

Know Your Options. Motivation for charitable giving comes from the heart, whether you are supporting a cause personal to you or one that benefits the greater community. Sharing your fiscal resources is a treasured gift, and may also provide you with tax benefits for you and your family. Understanding the many options for giving and the impact of your gift can make the process easier. In each newsletter, we will present a column devoted to this topic and share with you how charitable giving can provide financial benefits to you and your family. There are several methods of charitable giving and each with its benefit. The benefits can be realized in the short term, deferred to the future, provide income or provide your heirs with a tax-free inheritance. We hope that you will find these articles informative and helpful and enable you to make the best choices for you and your family.

Simple Painless Giving Equals Huge Value. One simple method of giving to make an automatic monthly gift which will amount to a significant impact to RTO and a nice income tax deduction at the end of the year for you. See how far your Simple Gifts will go. $20 per month buys a toilet. $30 per month buys kitchen sink & faucets. $40 per month buys a water heater. $50 per month makes a disabled or elderly person Safe-at-Home. $100 per month will paint a house. $200 per month will buy a wheelchair ramp.

Gifts In Kind. Another way to donate painlessly is to register with eScrip and a percentage of your grocery and other purchases will be donated to RTO by such merchants as Safeway, Macy’s, Petsmart and OfficeMax to name a few. Do you have a vehicle, motorcycle, RV, or boat you want to dispose of? Our partner, Car Donation Services will take it off your hands, complete all of the DMV paperwork and donate a percentage of the sale proceeds to RTO.
