Strategic ways to give
Gift in a will or trust
When you give a gift in a will or trust (bequest), your decision sets a powerful example of financial stewardship and generosity for your loved ones.
By incorporating the following language into your will, you ensure that Childhelp can continue its mission of creating a world where every child is safe and loved:
“I give to Childhelp, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with its principal offices located at 6730 N. Scottsdale Rd, Suite 150, Scottsdale, Arizona 85253, [the sum of $] OR [% of the residue of my estate], to be used [for its general purposes] OR [for a designated purpose]. If, in its opinion, the need for funds for the designated purpose no longer exists, Childhelp is authorized to use these funds for a similar purpose.”
Gift from your IRA
If you are 70 ½ or older, you can give directly from your IRA and reduce taxable income. Through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), you can make a tax-free gift straight from your IRA to Childhelp. It’s a simple, powerful way to support children in need while also lowering your tax bill.
How to make a gift from an IRA: Designate Childhelp as a beneficiary on the forms provided by your account manager, specifying the amount you want to give. Here is some information you will need to designate your gift:
- Legal name: Childhelp, Inc.
- Address: 6730 N. Scottsdale Rd. Suite 150 Scottsdale, AZ 85253
- Federal Tax ID: 95-2884608
Gifts from stock or assets
You can make a transformational impact for children by donating appreciated assets, such as stocks, real estate, or other non-cash holdings. These gifts may also provide significant tax advantages, such as avoiding capital gains taxes and receiving a fair market value deduction.
How to make a non-cash gift: Consult your financial advisor to see if donating assets is right for you. If so, contact Childhelp at legacy@childhelp.org to begin the process. For stock donations, please download the form below.
Gifts from life insurance
