Smart Ways to Give to MRN that Minimize Your Taxes and Maximize Your Impact

You want your charitable donations to be as effective as possible when you give. Here are four smart ways to give to MRN and enjoy tax deductions.

GIVE THROUGH YOUR DONOR-ADVISED FUND.

Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) are the fastest-growing charitable giving vehicle in the United States. It is a great tool for you to set aside funds for the sole purpose of supporting the charitable organizations you care about. When you contribute cash, securities, or other assets that have appreciated in value to a DAF at a public charity you are eligible to take an immediate tax deduction. Then those funds can be invested for tax-free growth, and you can recommend grants to any eligible IRS-qualified public charities like MRN.

Here is some information you may need if you are considering giving through your DAF to MRN:

  • MRN EIN is 75-2766086

  • The office address is 1901 Central Drive Suite 120, Bedford, TX 76021

GIVE TO MRN THROUGH YOUR IRA.

If you are 70 ½ years old or older, God has given you a special opportunity to bless MRN with your IRA. You can receive a tax benefit by giving through your IRA.

Since 2023, the IRS increased the Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) age to 73 for individuals with IRAs. However, the rules regarding Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) didn’t change. Beginning at age 70 ½, individuals can still make QCDs to their favorite charities from their IRAs of up to $100,000 per year.

A gift to MRN made directly from your IRA is qualified as a QCD and does not require the recognition of income by you. Furthermore, if you are 73 or older, a gift to MRN made directly from your IRA counts toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD).

Giving from your IRA is a great way to minimize your tax liability and maximize your Kingdom impact. Please consider taking advantage of IRA charitable giving to MRN. To do so, please consult your tax advisor or your IRA administrator.

GIVE YOUR APPRECIATED STOCKS, BONDS, OR MUTUAL FUNDS TO MRN.

While cash and checks may be popular and simple ways to give to MRN, long-term appreciated assets like stocks, bonds, or mutual funds could offer better tax benefits to you.

You avoid capital gains taxes when give your appreciated stocks, bonds or mutual funds to MRN instead of selling them. Not only do you save money by no capital gains taxes but also you maximize your giving to MRN.

You can count all your stocks, bonds, and mutual funds donations to MRN as your income tax deductions. That means when you file your federal taxes if you itemize deductions, you can deduct the stocks, bonds, and mutual funds donations to MRN from your taxable income. This helps you lower your taxable income and pay less overall income taxes.

GIVE A LEADERSHIP LEGACY GIFT TO MRN.

Your partnership with MRN has been multiplying healthy leaders in the U.S. and overseas to disciple the unreached and underserved people groups around the world for over 25 years. We know you deeply care about MRN and want to continue to pursue that mission for the next 25 years and the decades to come.

One meaningful way you can continue the kingdom impact of your life is by including a legacy gift in your Will to MRN. This will extend your legacy by training healthy leaders of the future to make disciples of all nations. By giving a Leadership Legacy Gift, you leave a lasting legacy to be remembered, you reduce the burden of taxes on your family and you may receive estate tax savings. More importantly, when you give a Leadership Legacy Gift to MRN, your legacy can live on through the difference you make in the lives of hundreds of thousands of kingdom workers in the generations to come!
