Ways to Donate
You Make a Difference:
Helping Families, Changing Lives
IRA
Retirement Plan Gifts
Give a lasting impact by donating part or all of your IRA to the Arizona Diaper Bank. If you’re 70½ or older, you can make a direct contribution and potentially receive tax benefits. Just share the sample letter of instruction with your IRA administrator to get started.
Stocks or Securities
Donating appreciated stocks or mutual funds is a smart way to support the Arizona Diaper Bank while maximizing your tax benefits. Many donors choose this method because it allows them to make a bigger impact at a lower cost.
*Benefits of giving stocks or mutual funds include:
- Avoiding federal and state capital gains tax.
- Receiving a federal (and often state) income tax deduction for the full market value of the gift if you’ve held the assets for one year or longer.
- Making a larger gift to help families in need at a lower cost to you.
