"Meals-on-Wheels is a Godsend. Having someone who cares about you and is willing to deliver a meal, I think it is wonderful. I give my sincere thanks because it means so much. It really is a wonderful thing."
Ms. Josephine Jefferies
The holidays are upon us and because of you, LifeCare Alliance has many reasons to be grateful! Thanks to the generous support you have given through donations and volunteer hours this year, LifeCare Alliance has helped more than 30,000 central Ohio clients remain safe, independent, and living in their own homes — where they want to be!
As you consider your year-end giving, please continue your support of LifeCare Alliance. Take a look at these helpful tips below.
Double your impact by taking advantage of two match opportunities
!
- Company Matching: Many companies offer a charitable match program for volunteer hours or donations that can double your impact! Contact your employer to find out whether you can make your support for LifeCare Alliance go even further, and let us know how we can assist.
- Legacy Endowment Campaign: You can double your permanent impact by planning a legacy gift. An anonymous donor has generously committed to matching the first $5 million in endowment gifts!
Maximize Your Impact and Tax Benefits!
- Your gift of appreciated stock or other marketable securities can help our clients, and may offer significant tax benefits.
- Your multi-year, bundled gift may be a great way to maximize tax benefits in 2019, while ensuring your impact for several years.
- Your IRA rollover may be the most tax-efficient way to give to LifeCare Alliance. The IRA rollover law has been permanently extended, meaning that you can make a distribution to LifeCare Alliance from your IRA without paying income taxes on the contribution. You must be 70 1/2 years old, you must decline goods or services, and your rollover may not exceed $100,000.
