CARES Act Tax Deduction
For donations made in 2021
The tax-advantaged opportunities for charitable giving passed under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act allow you to deduct up to $300, despite taking the standard deduction if you no longer itemize your personal deductions. Separately, if you itemize your deductions, you are eligible to deduct donations to Doylestown Health up to 100% of your adjusted gross income (AGI) for cash contributions in 2021. Existing carry-over rules still apply, so some donors may even be able to carry over unused cash contribution deductions for up to five years.
For donations made in 2022
Individuals who itemize deductions may deduct gifts of cash up to 60% of their AGI. Existing carry-over rules still apply.
IRA Charitable Distribution
You can make a gift directly from your IRA to Doylestown Health without having to recognize the transfer as income. To qualify, you must be at least age 70½ and the transfer must be made by your plan provider directly to Doylestown Health Foundation. The distribution is tax-free and counts toward your required minimum distribution. You can donate any amount from your IRA up to $100,000 annually, all of which will help Doylestown Health prepare for its second century of care.
Gifts of Appreciated Securities
Long-term appreciated securities, such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds can be donated directly to Doylestown Health Foundation. You will receive a charitable tax deduction for the gift’s fair market value if you itemize deductions on your tax return and have owned the securities for at least one year. You will also avoid federal and state tax on the capital gains. Gifts of appreciated securities allow you to make a larger gift to Doylestown Health with assets you bought at a lower cost.
Make a gift today to support the future of healthcare excellence in our community.
