Securities
A charitable gift of appreciated stock can be a very profitable move for the donor and the charity. if you directly donate appreciated stock which has been held over twelve months, you can usually bypass federal capital gains that would be owed. You are usually allowed a federal tax deduction for the full present value of the stock. Conversely, that would not be the case if the stock were sold and the proceeds donated to Youth Tennis San Diego Foundation.

Cash
A cash gift is a very simple way of giving. Your gift can be designated to be used now, spread out over a multi-year period, or be placed in a long-term endowment fund. In most circumstances the gift is income-tax deductable.

Trusts
A Charitable Remainder Trust is a way to assure you a lifetime income and eventually make an important donation to the Youth Tennis San Diego Foundation. Simple to set up, it is an irrevocable documented agreement in which you transfer assets to a trustee who will mangage the funds. You may determine the rate of return to you annually. At the end of the term of the trust - usually the life of the income beneficiary - the trust assets pass to the Youth Tennis San Diego Foundation.
Different types of trusts can be used to plan retirement at the same time you are supporting your community. Trusts have become a very popular method of giving because of all the obvious benefits.

Life Insurance
If you have an existing life insurance policy that is no longer needed in your estate planning, you may transfer the policy to the Youth Tennis San Diego Foundation. Assign the Foundation irrevocably as the beneficiary and you will receive an immediate charitable gift deduction. If you choose to take out a new policy with the Youth Tennis San Diego Foundation as the owner and beneficiary, you will also receive immediate charitable deduction considerations.
