You can help us to fund research that will unravel the causes of Alzheimer’s, develop effective therapies and find methods of prevention.
What’s more, you can also enjoy tax benefits from these gifts now, or you can establish a future gift that will pass tax benefits along to your loved ones.
As a Cure Alzheimer’s Fund supporter, you can create a true, lasting difference in the lives of patients and their families with a gift that makes an impact now, or a gift that will create your enduring legacy of eliminating Alzheimer’s disease. Working together, we can relieve the physical, emotional and financial burden of the illness for millions of people throughout the world.
There are many ways to be a part of the solution to find a cure. It is through your support that we move a little closer every year to understanding Alzheimer’s disease – and finding a cure.
You can learn more about these special opportunities in our free brochure, Tax-Wise Ways to Make an Impact, and other complimentary planning resources. These resources are just a click away!
Stocks and Securities
When you give stock or securities (stock, bonds, mutual funds), you may be eligible for a double tax benefit: 1) You receive an income tax deduction for the full, present, fair market value of the assets and 2) you may completely avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation of the assets. This is one of the easiest gifts to give and one of the most useful in accomplishing your philanthropic goals.
Retirement Assets
A gift of your retirement assets, such as an employee retirement plan, IRA or tax-sheltered annuity, is an excellent way to make a gift. A gift of these assets can shield you or your heirs from taxes while supporting Cure Alzheimer’s Fund.
Life Insurance
You may transfer ownership now:
To make an impact on our mission today, irrevocably designate Cure Alzheimer’s Fund as owner and beneficiary of an existing life insurance policy. If your policy is paid up, you will receive an immediate income tax deduction based on the policy value.
If your policy is not yet fully paid, you will make contributions of cash to Cure Alzheimer’s Fund to cover future premium payments. For any continuing premium payments you make, you will receive a charitable deduction in the year of the payment.
Or name us as a beneficiary:
You can name Cure Alzheimer’s Fund as a beneficiary of all or a portion of your life insurance policy. With this gift arrangement, Cure Alzheimer’s Fund will receive the proceeds of your policy when you pass away. You can change your beneficiary at any time.
This gift is easy to arrange — simply request a beneficiary designation form from your plan administrator.
Personal Property
A gift of artwork, coins, antiques or other personal property can be an excellent way to support Cure Alzheimer’s Fund. The tax benefits of the gift depend on whether Cure Alzheimer’s Fund can use the property in a way that is related to its mission. Contact us to learn more about this type of gift — we would be happy to help you find the option that best fits your philanthropic goals.
