5 Easy Ways to Give:
Giving doesn't have to be complicated. Pick the one that works for you.
1. Give online or by check. New this year: even if you don't itemize, you can deduct up to $1,000 in cash gifts ($2,000 if you're married filing jointly).
2. Give from your donor-advised fund. If you have a fund at Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard or elsewhere, just log in and recommend a grant to the Strata Foundation. Our EIN is 84-3745294.
3. Give stock that has gone up. Donate shares you've owned for more than a year instead of cash. You skip the capital gains tax, and if you itemize, you can deduct the full value.
4. Give from your IRA if you're 70½ or older. Send a gift straight from your IRA to us. It's called a Qualified Charitable Distribution. It isn't counted as income, and it can count toward your required minimum distribution.
5. Ask your employer to match. Many companies match what their employees give. A quick note to HR can double your gift.
