Corporate Matching Gifts

Many companies often offer matching gift programs that enhance a charitable contribution made by an employee. Not only does The Miami Valley School benefit from the increased donation, but a donor may qualify for a higher category of recognition when the gift is matched. Ask your human resource department for a matching gift form and send it in with your contribution.

Gifts of Stock

Securities are the most common form of property given to non-profit institutions. The Miami Valley School welcomes gifts of stocks, bonds, and shares of mutual funds. By donating appreciated stocks directly to The Miami Valley School, you can avoid the capital gains tax that would be incurred if you sold the securities. When a gift of securities is made, donors are entitled to a charitable income tax deduction for the full, fair-market value of the stock for the year the gift is made. The fair-market value is determined by the mean of the high and low sales prices on the date the stock is received by The Miami Valley School.

Planned Giving and Bequests

Gifts made as part of your overall financial plan, which often benefit you now and The Miami Valley School later, are known as “planned gifts.” Bequests, gifts of insurance and retirement plan funds, and gifts that provide lifetime income can provide significant future resources to The Miami Valley School while providing you with income, tax, and personal benefits. Planned giving also allows you to provide future support for the areas and programs at The Miami Valley School that are of most interest to you, address important family and financial needs, and often allow you to make a larger gift than you might have thought possible.

Planned gifts offer the following benefits:

• Provide lifetime income for you and, if you wish, another beneficiary.
• Give you a substantial federal income-tax charitable deduction.
• Enable you to turn low-yielding assets into a higher income stream.
• Reduce or eliminate taxes on capital gains.
• Eliminate or reduce federal estate taxes.
• Ultimately provide a meaningful gift to The Miami Valley School.
• For questions about planning giving contact The Executive Assistant to the Head of School (937)434-4444 to have a confidential conversation with the Head of School about how you can explore bequests or other planned giving opportunities.
