Gifts of Securities

Gifts of appreciated securities, either publicly traded or from a private company, may provide significant tax advantages when compared to gifts of cash.

Gifts of Life Insurance

For donors age 70 or older, establishing a new life insurance policy through O’Dea or gifting an existing, paid-up life insurance policy provides a creative way to support the campaign.

Donor-Advised Funds (DAF)

A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is an investment account that is used for charitable giving.

Estate / Planned Gifts

For donors age 70 or older, gifts by bequest or other planned-giving methods provide significant tax benefits and are a practical way to support The O’Dea Campaign.

IRA Distributions

If you are at least 73 years of age, you must take a required minimum distribution (RMD) from your IRA each year. A Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) is a tax-free way to satisfy your RMD, where you can contribute a maximum of $105,000. A gift to O’Dea is a great way to meet this requirement.

Matching Gifts

Many corporations will match donations made by employees. Be sure to check with your employer and send us the appropriate paperwork or use your company’s online system. This is a great way to make the most out of your gift.
