• Gifts of Cash: The CARES Act allows taxpayers who take the standard deduction to make up to $300 of charitable contributions to qualified charities. Itemizers can deduct up to 100% of adjusted gross income. As of now, this only applies to 2020.
• Stock or Securities: Make a gift of stock or securities to Agassiz Village and avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation of your stock. Please call Lisa Carter, Executive Director, at 781-860-0200 ext.1006 to make your stock gift.
• Individual Retirement Account: If you or a family member are 70½ or older with an individual retirement account (IRA), you can make a tax-free gift to Agassiz Village directly from your IRA. This is called a qualified charitable distribution. Through the SECURE Act you can transfer any amount up to $100,000 per year directly to a qualified charitable organization without paying income tax on the distribution.
• Donor-Advised Funds: Give through your donor-advised fund to maximize your impact. Your fund sponsor handles all record-keeping, disbursements, and tax receipts.
We are delighted to invite you for a wonderful opportunity to have lunch with the kids at Agassiz Village.
Your visit will begin at our office, where our leadership team will warmly welcome you and provide an exclusive tour of our campus. This tour will offer you a unique insight into the vibrant and nurturing environment we have created. Following the tour, you will join the kids on the porch of our dining hall for a private lunch with a select group of young people. This intimate setting will allow you to connect with the children, share stories, and experience firsthand the impact of our programs.
Visitors can expect to spend approximately 75-90 minutes at Agassiz Village. We believe this time will be both enriching and enjoyable, leaving you with lasting memories and a deeper appreciation of our mission. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing this special experience.
