Tax Benefits

As a 501(c)3 organization, under current law, all gifts qualify as charitable contributions for federal and state tax purposes.

Michigan taxpayers may take a credit of 50% of their gift to an endowed fund against the Michigan income or Michigan Business Tax. Limits are $100 for an individual, $200 for a couple filing jointly, and $5,000 or 5% of the tax liability for businesses.

If the gift is in the form of appreciated securities, the donor can avoid capital gains tax and may take the market value of the securities as the gift value.
