Gifts by Check
Gifts by check are a welcome form of support and should be made payable to the BallenIsles Charities Foundation.

Advantages
Gifts by check from a typical bank account may be fully tax deductible depending on your specific filing situation. We recommend consulting with your professional tax advisor to review your specific tax landscape and maximize your charitable planning benefits.

Contributions of appreciated securities, including mutual funds, are an excellent method of support. To facilitate your gift, assets can be contributed directly to the BallenIsles Charities Foundation or seamlessly transferred with the professional support of your broker or financial advisor.
Advantages
Direct IRA Contribution
Good news for taxpayers over the age of 72: Congress has voted to make permanent the exclusion from income of up to $100,000 per person, per year, for Individual Retirement Account (IRA) distributions given directly to charities.
Advantages
Matching Gifts
We encourage you to inquire about corporate Matching Gift Programs, which are established by many employers for their current and retired personnel. These institutional programs provide a valuable source of support by matching charitable gifts, with the specific criteria (including the amount of the match) determined by the company's policy.
The Foundation can help you determine if your employer has a matching gift program. Contact us at info@ballenislescharitiesfoundation.org for help.
