THREE REASONS TO MAKE YOUR GIFT TO THE VALERIE FUND NOW
Throughout the pandemic, The Valerie Fund Children's Centers have been administering chemotherapy and transfusions, scans, procedures, providing psychosocial support to patients and families, and keeping families hard hit by the economic reality of the pandemic fed and housed. That's why we're looking to you, our extended Valerie Fund family, to help us continue all of these critical services uninterrupted. And that's why we want to share the good news with you, our extended Valerie Fund family, about making your gift now.
3 Good Reasons to Make Your Gift to The Valerie Fund Now
REASON ONE: Can you shift the timing of your usual end of year gift and make your donation today? By making your regular annual donation today you help fund uninterrupted care. The disruption to our normal fundraising cycle will be greatly eased if you make your end of year gift now to support The Valerie Fund kids and families.
REASON TWO: New Jersey state tax filers receive a significant tax benefit until the governor declares an end to the New Jersey COVID-19 State of Emergency. You can claim a gross income tax deduction of up to $20,000 when filing jointly and $10,000 when filing individually for charitable gifts to qualifying New Jersey charities.
REASON THREE: Donors can alleviate their tax burden by gifting The Valerie Fund appreciated stock or giving through their IRAs.
Stock giving allows you to receive a tax deduction for the stock's value at the time of donation, and avoid paying capital gains tax. Click here to donate appreciated stocks through our new giving tool that will make it quick and easy.
Giving from your IRA allows you to create a completely tax-free gift of up to $100,000, regardless of whether or not you itemize. If you're 70.5 or older, click here to give from your IRA easily using our new giving tool.
