A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple, tax-efficient way to support Green Mountain Habitat for Humanity. When you contribute to a DAF, you receive the allowable tax deduction, even if you recommend a gift to Green Mountain Habitat at a later time.
Assets in your DAF can grow tax-free, giving you the flexibility to choose the best time to make your gift. Many DAF sponsors also offer the option to set up recurring gifts, allowing you to provide ongoing support for Green Mountain Habitat’s mission. Most DAF providers offer easy-to-use online portals, making it simple to manage your giving.
To get started, contact your financial advisor or banking institution to set up a Donor-Advised Fund, or reach out to your DAF sponsor to recommend a gift from an existing fund. Consulting a financial professional will ensure that your wishes to make a lasting impact will be fulfilled.
If you are age 70½ or older, you can make a tax-free gift directly from your IRA to Green Mountain Habitat for Humanity through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD).
A QCD can satisfy all or part of your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) and provides significant tax advantages.
Unlike taking a personal distribution, a QCD does not increase your adjusted gross income. Your gift can also be excluded from your taxable income, even if you do not itemize deductions.
Giving through your IRA is as simple as contacting your IRA administrator to request a direct distribution to Green Mountain Habitat.
We appreciate the donation of items to help us run our ReStores, manage volunteer and construction operations, and make a difference in our community.
Some examples of in-kind donations include:
Did you know that many companies match charitable donations made by their employees? Some employers offer dollar-for-dollar matches, while others may double or even triple an employee’s gift.
Most companies with matching gift programs use a national nonprofit database where employees can search for eligible organizations by name, location, category, or tax ID/EIN.
Ask your employer if they offer a matching gift program! If they do, you may be able to increase the impact of your gift to Green Mountain Habitat for Humanity at no additional cost to you.
If your employer offers a matching gift program but does not use a national nonprofit database, ask your HR department to add Green Mountain Habitat for Humanity to its list of eligible charitable organizations.
