Planned Giving
Many of our partners support Habitat for Humanity Okaloosa County through planned gifts, which may qualify for significant tax donations. Giving options include bequests, charitable gift annuities and charitable remainder trusts.
Stocks and Bond Gifts
A charitable gift of stocks or bonds provides an opportunity for tax savings while generously sharing with others. A gift of stock owned for more than one year entitles you to a charitable deduction for the full market value at the time the gift is made. If the stock has appreciated, you also avoid a capital gains tax on the appreciation. In addition to helping Habitat for Humanity Okaloosa County you may diversify away from low-basis, long-term holdings into other assets that will better suit your current needs.
Matching Gifts
Thousands of corporations have a matching gift program or a PAC Match incentive (Political Action Committee) which may match your gift to Habitat for Humanity Okaloosa County. This match may double, triple or quadruple the amount of your gift. If you or your spouse work or are retired from a matching gift company, please contact the human resources department to verify and initiate the matching gift program. View a full list of companies.
