Making a planned gift through a will, stock, or IRA contribution is deeply personal and meaningful now and in the future. There are many ways you can plan to finance your vision of helping the Israel Guide Dog Center.

As always, you should consult with your tax advisor to determine the impact your gift may have on your taxes and estate.

Naming the Israel Guide Dog Center as a beneficiary in your Trust or Will is a lasting testament to your generosity and passion about Israel, dogs, and our collective future. It can be your positive and enduring impact on the world.

If you’re 70 1/2 or older, a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) allows you to donate up to $100,000 directly from your IRA to a charity like the Israel Guide Dog Center, without having to include the distribution as taxable income. This can be a savvy way to fulfill your required minimum distribution, potentially lower your income taxes, and make a significant charitable impact all at once.

Donating stock is a “tax smart” way to support the Israel Guide Dog Center while also limiting your capital gains tax. Many of our most committed donors find they’re able to give more generously when they donate appreciated assets than if they’d simply given cash.
