Work Place Giving
Want to double or even triple the impact of your gift?! Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match charitable contributions made by their employees, retirees or even spouses. In addition to matching gifts, organizations may match volunteer hours, enable employees to give via payroll deduction, provide sponsorships and in-kind donations, host special giving events or other charitable benefits. Please check with your HR or Operations department to find out more about supporting CVTC in this way!Stock Giving
Giving long-term, appreciated securities can provide benefits to both you and CVTC! You’ll increase your tax deduction and total gift amount (vs. selling securities to donate the proceeds) and avoid capital gains tax. We’ll be forever grateful that you’ve chosen to maximize the impact of your gift in this way. Would you prefer to donate bonds or mutual funds? The same benefits apply. Reach out to Janine at jguzzone@cvtcnyc.org for more information and instructions for electronic transfer. You should always consult with your financial advisor before initiating a charitable gift arrangement.Planned Giving
A legacy gift to CVTC displays your deep commitment to our work and your faith that we will continue to serve and expand our mission to make a difference for generations to come. Bequests and beneficiary designations in your will or trust are simple to arrange and can be easily modified if your needs change. Giving via your IRA or a Donor Advised fund can provide tax benefits both long and short term. All of these gifts are an investment in our tomorrow and, if you’d like to support us in this way, we’d love to celebrate you today. Talk it over with your attorney, financial advisor, estate planner, or accountant and then contact Janine at jguzzone@cvtcnyc.org to discuss the best way to make a planned gift to CVTC for you and some sample language to make it happen. Have you already included CVTC in your estate? We’d love to thank you, so please let us know here.Peer to Peer Giving
