IRA Gifts

If you are 70.5 or older, giving from your IRA can help reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it! By using the link below to give from your IRA, you can auto-complete your paperwork and we can track your gift to send you the proper tax receipts.

Gifts of Stock

To make a gift of stock, please follow these directions:

Donating stocks allows you to avoid capital gains tax and often take a charitable deduction for the full value of the asset. Click the button below to donate stock so we can track your gift, send you the correct receipt, and ensure you can get the tax savings you deserve. If you would prefer to make your donation through your broker, access our transfer information from the link below to notify the CAP Foundation of your gift.

Donor-Advised Funds

Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are investment accounts for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations today. This tool automatically links with your DAF, allows you to recommend how you’d like your gift to be used and notifies the CAP Foundation of your intentions.  Using the link below to grant from your DAF also saves us a lot of time, so thank you! It’s a great way to ensure consistent financial support while saving cash for immediate needs.

Cryptocurrency

We now accept donations of Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies! This gives us one more way to fund our work and can provide you with extra tax benefits.

Recurring Donations

Through recurring donations, you can make a lasting impact. Our convenient online form provides a range of options. Follow the steps to set up a recurring donation.

Select the amount and frequency (monthly or quarterly) of your recurring gift.

Choose the donation timing that works best for you: the 1st or 15th of each month, or the first day of every other month.

Tributes and Memorials

Use our online form to commemorate a friend, mentor, colleague, or loved one in an incredibly thoughtful way.

Enter your tribute or memorial information on the form before finalizing your gift. The CAP Foundation will mail a letter to your designee and recognize tributes via our annual report, annual meeting donor wall, website, and other materials throughout the year.
