What to Give

Consider what types of assets might help you achieve your philanthropic and financial goals.

Gifts of Stocks and Bonds

Donating appreciated securities, including stocks or bonds, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift.

Gifts of Real Estate

If you own real property that you no longer use or has become burdensome to maintain, donating appreciated real estate, such as a home, vacation property, undeveloped land, farmland, ranch or commercial property can make a great charitable gift.

Gifts of Retirement Assets

Donating part or all of your unused retirement assets such as a gift from your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), pension or other tax-deferred plan is an excellent way to make a gift to Carolina, either during life or at death.

Gifts of Cash

A gift of cash is a simple and easy way for you to make a gift.

Gifts of Life Insurance

If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, consider donating it to Carolina.

Gifts of Business Interests

As a business owner, you have the opportunity not only to build your business and accumulate wealth for yourself and your family, but also to accomplish your philanthropic goals through charitable planning. A gift of your corporate stock or assets can provide you with tax and income benefits and help further our mission.

Gifts of Mineral Interests

A gift of mineral interests (oil, gas, gold, silver or other precious metals) is an excellent way to make a charitable gift.

Gifts of Farm Interests

Donating your farm interests, including land, grain, machinery, livestock and your farm, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift.
