Non-cash Gifts

Non-cash gifts are donations of assets other than cash, including stocks and bonds, real estate, and personal property (such as artwork or valuable collections). When you make a noncash gift, you do not pay capital gains taxes, often increasing the value of your donation while meeting your estate planning goals.

Charitable Lead Trust (CLT)

A CLT allows you to support RefugePoint now while preserving assets for your heirs in the future. By putting assets into a trust, it provides income to RefugePoint for a set number of years, after which the remainder goes to your beneficiaries.

Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA)

With a CGA, you make a donation of cash or assets, and in return, RefugePoint pays you (or a loved one) a fixed amount every year for the rest of your life. After you pass, the remaining balance of the gift goes to support RefugePoint allowing you to support refugees while securing lifelong income for yourself.

Wills and Bequests

By including a bequest to RefugePoint in your will, you can leave a lasting legacy without affecting your finances during your lifetime. You can choose to leave a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or particular assets like stocks or property.

Remainders from Qualified Retirement Plans

You can name RefugePoint as a beneficiary of your qualified retirement plans, like IRAs, 401(k)s, and 403(b)s. Since these accounts are typically subject to income taxes when passed to heirs, designating a charity like RefugePoint can avoid those taxes entirely, allowing 100% of your gift to support refugees.
