Gifts of appreciated stocks, bonds, mutual funds, along with bequests, beneficiary designations and other planned gifts can be the proverbial win-win. A boost for SCELP's mission and extra tax savings for you!
If you’re 70.5 or wiser, your best option could be a gift directly from your IRA (aka Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) or charitable roll-overs). Making a QCD is a powerful way to make an immediate impact on the protection of South Carolina’s natural environment and the advancement of environmental justice.
DAFs are established by making an irrevocable, tax-deductible donation through an organization that hosts a DAF program. The tax deduction is based on when the account is funded, and any fund investment growth is tax-free. To make a gift through DAFs or list SCELP as a beneficiary, please contact your fund administrator.
Environmental protection and justice across South Carolina does not just mean providing legal services and advice — it also means building a vision for a healthier future, and the legal infrastructure to enable it. Your legacy gift will help us make this vision a reality.
Our most tax-savvy supporters are making direct gifts of appreciated stock (which includes mutual funds) to support your Lawyers for the Wild Side. Adding capital gain savings to federal and state income tax deductions, you can have more impact at less cost.
