Your path to this gift: You're considering a gift made during your lifetime > You hold assets that you no longer wish to display or maintain >You want to save both income and capital gains tax
We are receptive to gifts of personal property: artwork, collectibles, equipment and other items that help us advance our mission.
If you are considering such a gift, we will be able to guide you in determining if the pieces can be used by USP -- a requirement of the IRS to qualify your gift for a charitable deduction -- and in securing an independent appraisal to establish the amount of your deduction.
Note that most all gifts of personal property are made to USP outright. In rare cases, it may be possible for the donor to arrange for life income to be paid to him or her in return for the gift. However, significant tax considerations make it advisable for you to consult your advisors and our office first before proceeding with such a plan.
If you are considering a gift of art or collectibles, email us, complete the personal illustration form, or call us at 888-857-6264 so that we can assist you through every step of the process.
