Planned Giving
The term planned giving refers to charitable gifts that require some planning before they are made. Planned gifts are popular because they can provide valuable tax benefits. This type of gift is very attractive to both the donor and the charity. Planned gifts include bequests, trusts, and contracts between a donor and the ASTA Foundation. For further information, contact the Finance Department at ASTA Headquarters.
Here are some basic descriptions:
The tax deductibility of charitable gifts depends on a number of factors. The ASTA Foundation, Inc. strongly encourages each donor to seek the advice of their tax and legal professionals as to the deductibility of any trusts or bequests.
By hosting a special event, you gain publicity for your organization or chapter as well as helping the ASTA Foundation. The events provide a fun vehicle for involving employees, colleagues, and chapter members in a good cause. From a golf tournament to a walk-a-thon to a party, any event you would like to host would benefit the ASTA Foundation. For more information, please contact ASTA at 703.739.2782 Attn Research Dept.
