Other Donations:
Cash Donations: Your cash gifts allow Alternatives youth to provide effective programs, to help reach the children and youth on Chicago's northeast side. Alternatives Inc. is a nonprofit, charitable program incorporated under section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Bequest in a Will: A donor can designate Alternatives Inc. as the recipient of all or any portion of his/her estate; however, this can only be accomplished through a Will or other estate-planning document. Call 773-506-7474 for more details.
Stocks, Bonds, and Mutual Fund Shares: A donor may transfer ownership of securities (stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares) to Alternatives Inc. as a gift. The fair market value at the time of transfer is considered as a charitable contribution and is tax deductible when itemizing deductions. There is a tax advantage to the donor when the securities are worth more than their cost basis, since there is no capital gains tax to be paid. This can be a good way to dispose of small numbers of shares that might be costly to sell through a stockbroker. For more information on transferring stock, call us at 773-506-7474.
Real Estate: Buildings and land make excellent gifts to Alternatives Inc. These can be outright gifts, for which the donor may be able to take a tax deduction for the current fair market value of the property. If you would like more information please call 773-506-7474.
