    planned gifts

    There are many types of planned gifts, and nearly all share the following characteristics:
    • Increased income to the donor
    • Avoidance of up-front capital gains taxes when appreciated assets are used
    • A charitable income tax deduction for a portion of the gift Avoidance of estate taxes
    • The opportunity to make a significant, permanent gift to support the ongoing work of the Community Loan Fund
    Life-income gifts provide an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of the gift. The exact percentage of the deduction depends upon the age of the income beneficiaries, the type of gift involved, the rate of return, and market conditions. You can name the New Hampshire Community Loan Fund the beneficiary of your life insurance policy, or simply name us as a beneficiary in your will.

    It is frequently advantageous to donors to make a gift of appreciated securities. In most cases, the full market value of the securities is deductible, while capital gains taxes are eliminated.

    Please talk to your financial adviser about this option.
