BECOME A DONOR
You become our partner in giving when you become a donor to the Adams County Foundation. Adams County Foundation is here to help you reach your charitable goals with the tax advantages of a public charity.

There are three important options when considering the creation of a charitable gift. These three options appeal to a vast spectrum of personal, business, estate and philanthropic goals.

      A) Consider a current gift given outright – such as a gift of cash or long-term
           appreciated securities. Maximum income tax deduction benefits are awarded to
           you when you choose this option and this type of gift helps the Adams County
           Foundation programs reach their goals with financial excellence.

      B) Consider a life-income gift. A gift of cash, long-term appreciated securities
           or real estate, allow you to retain the right to receive income from the donation
           for your lifetime and the lifetime of your spouse. This method of giving can provide
           a significant income to you, with the benefit of a healthy income tax deduction.

      C) Consider a gift that comes to us after your lifetime, a bequest. A bequest
           to the Adams County Foundation provides ultimate flexibility for our donors. There
           are no income or tax advantages during your lifetime if you contribute to the Adams
           County Foundation with this form of giving.

An important decision all donors need to make after a considerable amount of thought and consultation – are there more advantages to creating a gift during your lifetime or after your lifetime?

After you have reached the right conclusion a wide range of giving options exist to establish a charitable fund that meets your personal as well as philanthropic goals.
