  I would like to contribute to the following country:


Donate your used Car, Boat, RV, or Plane
Gain a tax deduction for the donation, and avoid the hassles of a private sale of your car, boat, RV, or airplane! The proceeds from your donation will greatly help with our efforts, as well as our many other efforts and development activities at home and around the world. Click here for more info.


Airline frequent flyer miles
We pay for all expenses including travel out of our own pocket. We could use your frequent flyer miles (20,000 miles or more) to help us buy tickets for our trips to Belize, Guatemala, and other areas.


Auction items
Many people consider gifts of antiques and collectibles a unique way to support 4 the World. “What’s In Your Closet” is a special program that accepts gifts of tangible property and sells them through auctions, converting them into cash for people in need around the world. You can donate auction items like: vintage jewelry, antique furniture, collectible dolls, stuffed animals, rare books, memorabilia, etc.


Matching Employer contributions/ Gifts  
Did you know that many employers offer a gift-matching program? Check with your Human Resources office to find out—it could double your contribution! Be sure to check with your employer if they will match your charitable giving. (4 the World is a not-for-profit charity organization with tax exempt status (EIN# 75-3147466)

Gifts of Stock
Appreciated stocks or bonds purchased more than one year ago and donated to 4 the World could yield a tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock on the date the gift is transferred, and you pay no capital gains tax on the increase in value of your stock. (These same advantages apply to gifts of real property if the property has appreciated in value and has been held longer than 12 months.) As always in financial matters, please consult your tax advisor for details.


Real Estate
Are you thinking of selling land or a building? A charitable contribution of real estate whether it’s your personal residence, a vacation home, a farm, commercial real estate, or vacant land will give you numerous advantages.


Benefits:

  • Income tax charitable deduction for the full fair market value
  • Avoidance of tax on property’s appreciation
  • No hassle from trying to sell the property
  • No gift tax, plus a reduction of your taxable estate

 


Planned Giving
4 the World is a non-profit charity incorporated under the laws of the State of Oregon and is tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (EIN #75-3147466). Please consult your tax, legal and financial advisors for most effective use of planned giving techniques and contact us for more information.


Charitable Remainder Trust
Secure an income stream for you and your spouse, or your heirs, or provide for future payments to fund a grandchild's college education, and get an income tax deduction now. At the termination of the income payout, the charitable remainder would flow to 4 the World.


Charitable Lead Trust
Are you thinking of selling land or a building? A charitable contribution of real estate whether it’s your personal residence, a vacation home, a farm, commercial real estate, or vacant land will give you numerous advantages.


Benefits:

  • Can be funded during your lifetime or through your will
  • You support the 4 the World mission through annual income payouts
  • Reduces your taxable estate and potential gift taxes
  • Assets can be kept in the family

 


Gift Annuity Program
Provide an immediate or deferred income stream for yourself or others, receive a tax deduction, and know that the residuum will flow to 4 the World at the annuitant's death. Payout rates are determined by life expectancies and are very attractive at higher ages.


Bequest
Include bequest to 4 the World in your will. Specify either a fixed amount or a percentage of your estate. Also remember to include 4 the World as contingent beneficiary in your will and in your retirement and life insurance programs (in the event your intended heirs predecease you). There is no limit on federal estate tax deductions for charitable contributions.


Tax-Vulnerable Qualified Plans
List 4 the World as beneficiary in your tax-vulnerable qualified plans. Because tax-deferred retirement arrangements like IRAs or 401(k) plans can be subject to estate and income taxes, it can be very efficient to make testamentary bequests from these accounts by naming 4 the World as beneficiary for charitable designations from these accounts.
