We are pleased to inform you that Mai Family Services has established a brokerage account to allow you to donate smarter. Donating securities instead of cash can be a very effective and tax-efficient way to support your favorite charity. Tax benefits include but are not limited to avoiding capital gains, reducing estate taxes, and creating a write off if you itemize your taxes. Often times in order for you to receive the tax benefit we must receive the actual security, not just the cash realized from the sale of the security. Start early in the year with your donation planning as the timing of your donation is a factor ascertain securities might take longer to process. The tax aspects of charitable giving are complex and every circumstance is different. So please consult your tax adviser.
