Securities
Stock that has increased in value is one of the most popular assets used for charitable giving, once it has been held for a minimum of a year. Making a gift of securities to us offers you the chance to help our organization while realizing many important benefits for yourself.

Retirement Plan Assets
If you're like many Americans, your financial future will likely revolve around your retirement plan assets. To maximize the value of a retirement account, consider making a gift via your will/named beneficiary to Motlow College Foundation.

Savings Bonds
Savings bonds-likely the nation's most widely held appreciated asset-represent major assets that may have stopped growing and are now collecting dust, just waiting to be put to use. A tax-wise use for your appreciated savings bonds is to support a cause you care about.

Real Estate
Using real estate, such as your house, farm or commercial property, to fund a gift allows you to preserve your cash assets and receive significant tax advantages. Please contact the Foundation for information about donating Real Estate.

Gift-in-kind
A gift-in-kind is a gift of anything to Motlow College Foundation (goods or service) other than money.

Closely Held Stock
A donation of your closely held stock can be a fine way for you to make a sizable charitable contribution while realizing valuable tax benefits.

Life Insurance
Donating your life insurance could be a wonderful way to fulfill your desire to support our work. By making Motlow College Foundation the beneficiary of an existing policy, you make good use of your resources and expand your ability to make a significant gift. This will also remove the amount of the policy from your estate should it be subject to an inheritance tax.


NOTE: To take advantage of possible tax benefits, please be sure that all gifts are directed to
"Motlow College Foundation".
