- For tax savings in 2024, you need to make your gift by December 31, which this year falls on a Tuesday. Checks sent by mail need to have a December 31 postmark. Our address is: Triangle Land Conservancy, PO Box 1848, Durham, NC 27702.
- TLC’s Tax Identification Number: 58-1514406
- Online Gifts can be completed on December 31.
- Donor Advised Funds – you will want to initiate gifts from your DAF by early December if you want TLC to receive your gift by year-end. Because donors have already received the tax benefit for these funds, we encourage you to give generously to all charities from them, especially this year when so many nonprofits have experienced significant inflation pressures and increased operating costs.
- If you are 70½ and older, charitable gifts from your IRA may be advisable. Congress allows individuals to give up to $100,000 from their required distributions tax-free to charity. Charitable IRA gifts bypass taxes and also count toward your minimum required distribution.
- Giving stock or securities with increased value may provide greater tax savings than cash. Here’s the information you need to give stocks or securities to TLC. These must be requested by December 20th to count in the 2024 tax year.
- Gifts through wills, trusts, insurance policies, retirement plans, and other long-range financial plans all can be ways to support your charitable interests, including TLC. We’ve partnered with FreeWill to make planned giving easier than ever and completely free. Visit FreeWill.com/TriangleLand to get started today. If you would like to set up a time to discuss other planned giving options, please contact Casey Therrien, Associate Director of Philanthropy.
- Don't forget "matching gifts" from your employer, which can double and, in some cases, triple the value of your gift.
- Additional ways to support TLC include: signing up as a TLC Steward, or monthly donor, gifting a TLC membership to the land-lover in your life, or you can check out our Other Ways to Give page for more options.
- Ask your financial advisors which methods of giving are best for you.
