Gifting
Through Estate Planning
There
are many ways to give to charities like Beagles and Buddies. If you would
like to explore options of giving through estate planning, either through
direct bequests or setting up instruments such as charitable remainder
trusts, please contact your estate planning attorney. If you need assistance,
email us and we will refer you to a qualified estate planning attorney.
Your wishes and memories can help us to save dogs lives for years to come.

Appreciated Stock Donations
Donations
of appreciated stock to qualified charities are a very smart way to
contribute money. If you own stock which has risen in value since you
acquired it, you would pay federal and state capital gains tax if and
when you sold it. If you have owned the stock for at least one year
and instead donate it to a charity, such as Beagles and Buddies, you
can take a charitable donation deduction for the full fair market value
of the stock on your income tax return WITHOUT paying any of the capital gains tax. Then, Beagles
and Buddies, being the owner of the stock, can sell it and use the cash
to support itself and help save more dogs. It is as easy as that! Since
Beagles and Buddies is a non-profit organization, it pays no capital
gains tax.
Many people with appreciated stock in their portfolios donate stock
to charities instead of cash as they know it is the most tax advantageous
way to
give. Now you can too! Beagles and Buddies has a stock brokerage account
set up with a large national brokerage firm to accept such gifts of
stock. We give the donor a letter of receipt to use for preparation
of their income tax returns. We will also post a notice of thanks on
our website.
If you have any questions or need any specific information about making
donations of stock to Beagles and Buddies, (i.e. instructions to give
your stock broker), please email us. We have a CPA volunteer who will
be happy to assist you.
