Year-End Giving

‘Tis the season

SPECIAL NOTICE:

(Expires December 31, 2009)

Donate from your Individual Retirement Account.

Year-end is a great time for giving. During this time we celebrate God’s love for us with gifts that share the Good News of Christmas. Along with the earthly benefits of a tax deduction, a donation to the Maryknoll Sisters before December 31 is an ideal gift.

Call Sr. Anastasia Lott at (866) 662-9900 for more information.

Tips for year-end giving:

Talk to your advisor.
You should have your CPA, attorney, or other advisor help you understand the impact of your gift on your income tax return and estate.

Do your giving early.
This is especially true if you want to make a gift of non-cash assets (stock, real estate, etc.)

Calculate your income.
Take the time to do some planning while you still have the opportunity to make a year-end gift.

Review your stocks.
Look at the stocks you have held for more than a year. It may be best to use the ones that have appreciated the most to make your year-end gift

Consider a life-income gift.
Maryknoll Sisters offer a variety of life-income plans to fit your needs. You can make a gift now, obtain tax benefits, and receive income for the rest of your life.

Look into your heart and share your love.
Giving, sharing, extending love and kindness to others is the greatest gift of all. You are the eyes and hands of God for others.

Make God's Love Visible This Year

It's never too late to share with others. However, to receive 2009 Tax Year Benefits, please complete your gift by December 31, 2009.

In addition to cash gifts (or credit card gifts) other types of gift instruments can sometimes increase income and save taxes.

Please feel free to give me a call (toll-free: 866-662-9900) or send an e-mail (plannedgiving@mksisters.org) to get more information on IRA gifts, securities gifts, charitable gift annuities, or other types of giving.

You can make God’s love visible throughout the world through your Planned Gift in support of the Maryknoll Sisters and our global mission outreach.

Sister Anastasia Lott in our Planned Giving Office can provide you with information about different options to help you make an informed decision.
