As you set your resolutions and intentions for the year ahead, I encourage you to plan your philanthropic goals for 2022. Your favorite nonprofits always need support, but there are many ways you can prepare for the year without spending your money.
Here are four ways to prep your philanthropy for 2022.
Set up your planned gifts: Donors like you can create a powerful legacy by including your favorite charities in your will or trust. In just a few minutes, you can use this free tool to complete your plans today!
Familiarize yourself with stock donations: Avoid capital gains tax and receive an income tax deduction while you support your favorite charities. You can learn more or give with this link.
Determine your recurring gifts: Kick off the year by setting up a recurring gift, monthly or annually. This predictability helps organizations plan throughout the year and make better use of your generosity—plus, you can budget, too!
Cut the clutter: With a Charity Navigator account, you can save your favorite charities, select information sharing preferences, and designate and track donations. It’s the key to making tax season—and your inbox—easier.
As we start this new year, I invite you to join Charity Navigator in creating transformative impact for the most effective charities out there. And if you would like to support us in this new year, you can use the tools linked above to do so.
I hope you find this email helpful as you create your philanthropic goals for 2022. If you have any questions about these ways of giving, do not hesitate to reply to this email.
Best wishes for 2022,
