Planned giving

You can stretch the possibilities of generosity through the many and flexible advantages of planned giving, which allows you to direct your gift-giving, realize tax advantages and make a world of difference. 

Watch a short documentary about how charitable giving was a significant part of operations at Excel Industries over the years, including the company leadership and the Mullet family – and how that generosity has made an impact in far-reaching communities and in countless ways.

Make the most of your resources

You can donate many assets beyond cash, like securities, real estate, farm commodities, life insurance, IRAs and other retirement accounts, and more. Anything that can be valued and sold usually can be accepted as a gift for charity.

Be efficient with your taxes

Planned giving tools offer a number of ways to be tax-efficient with your assets and financial planning. Gifts may allow for immediate tax deductions, a reduction of capital gains taxes when applicable, and ways for beneficiaries like heirs, church organizations and other nonprofits to make the most of the gifts they receive.

There's typically a lot of joy in the process. Joy on the part of the donor who is able to make the gift they wanted to make, joy on the part of the nonprofit to receive the gift, and joy on the part of the people who will benefit far into the future."
