Philanthropic Fund Management Services
Park City Community Foundation helps make your charitable giving as effective and meaningful as possible. Along with all administrative, investment management, and grantmaking services, we support your philanthropic goals through giving strategies that reflect your interests, connecting you with fellow donors, and providing qualitative vetting of nonprofits.
Donor Advised Funds and Business Advised Funds
Create a lasting legacy by establishing your own fund which allows you to participate directly in the grantmaking process without the hassle and expense of running a private foundation.
MANY WAYS TO GIVE TO ANY NONPROFIT
You can support your community and favorite nonprofits with any of the assets listed here. Contact the nonprofit of your choice to see how it can accommodate your preferred giving options. Many can accept these assets directly. Just ask!
CASH: Credit card, check, wire transfer, or online donations. Recurring monthly or annual gifts are greatly appreciated.
PUBLICLY TRADED STOCK / APPRECIATED SECURITIES: Donating publicly traded stocks, bonds, or other securities may give you capital gains tax advantages by deducting the fair market value as a charitable contribution.
TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY: Vehicles, boats, and other appraised assets.
REAL ESTATE: Personal residences, commercial property, and open space designated land.
RETAINED LIFE ESTATE: Transfer the title of a residence to a nonprofit while retaining personal use of the property.
BARGAIN SALE: Sell property to a nonprofit for less than the property’s current fair market value. The excess of the value over the sales price is your contribution.
DONOR ADVISED FUND: Use your Donor Advised Fund, or consider starting one with Park City Community Foundation, to receive tax benefits.
TRANSFERS FROM CHARITABLE ENTITIES: If you have a private foundation or Donor Advised Fund and are concerned with succession planning or don’t have time to manage your foundation, you can transfer those assets to a nonprofit.
RETIREMENT PLANS: In larger estates, retirement fund assets distributed to family members may be subject to double taxation — first through the donor’s estate tax and then through beneficiaries’ income tax. IRA accounts can pass to a nonprofit free of estate and income taxes. Keogh plans, 401(k), 403(b) and other plans are also eligible. If you are 70.5 years of age or older, you can make a qualified charitable distribution from your IRA.
LIFE INSURANCE: Contribute a life insurance policy to a nonprofit or establish a new one with your favorite nonprofit as beneficiary. By doing so, you may be eligible for an income tax deduction.
CLOSELY HELD STOCK AND OTHER BUSINESS INTERESTS: Privately held stock, limited partnerships, and other closely-held business interests.
PLANNED GIFTS / ESTATE PLANNING: Make a simple bequest, a charitable remainder trust, or a charitable lead trust.
