STOCK DONATION

You can donate appreciated stock to First Tee — Triangle. If you have held it for more than one year, you may take a charitable tax deduction for the market value of the stock, and neither you nor First Tee has to pay capital-gains taxes when the stock is sold. The combination can result in a bigger deduction (and more tax savings) for you and a bigger gift for First Tee and the kids we serve than if you sell the stock, pay the taxes, and donate the net proceeds. Contact our office at 919.239.8056 and we can provide our stock account information.

IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVER

If you are at least 70½ years old by year’s end, you can have all or part of the distribution from an individual retirement account made directly to First Tee — Triangle (up to $100,000 per taxpayer per year). While you will not get a charitable deduction, you will not owe income tax on the IRA distribution. Please note, contributions to donor-advised funds do not qualify.
