Matching Gifts
Multiply the impact of your generosity by taking advantage of your company’s matching gift program. Check with your employee benefits office to find out if your company will match your gift. Please complete the appropriate forms and enclose them with your gift.
Gifts of Stock and Appreciated Securities
Gifts of stock can provide donors with an appealing way to provide charitable support while offering an attractive tax benefit on stock gains or losses, including avoidance of the capital gains tax and an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the gift, up to an amount equal to 30% of your adjusted gross income.
Making Gifts Through Your IRA
Donors who are at least age 72 (or 70½ if you reached 70½ before January 1, 2020) can benefit from this government-approved way to directly gift from your IRA to a qualified charitable organization like Fellowship Community. Gifting a portion of your required minimum distribution (limit is $100,000/year) can benefit your tax exposure in multiple ways.
Bequests
Donors can name Fellowship Community as a beneficiary under your will, testamentary trust, retirement plan, life insurance policy or bank/brokerage account.
Charitable Gift Annuities
Make a gift and receive income for life while benefiting from current and future tax savings. Funds may be gifted to establish an income-generating fund that provides lifetime income to you (and a spouse or other) with the residual of the fund going to Fellowship Community upon your death. Income levels are determined by the age of the annuity holder and the date established.

Fellowship Community is proud to announce a partnership with ShopRaise, an innovative and simple way to turn your everyday shopping at over 1,000 participating retailers into support for our mission.
