Gifts That Provide Income and/or Tax Benefits

Some planned gifts allow you to support Mustard Seed Communities while receiving income or tax advantages during your lifetime. These thoughtful gifts can help you meet personal financial goals while making a lasting impact on the lives of children and adults with disabilities, vulnerable mothers, and babies in our care.

Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT)

A Charitable Remainder Trust provides you or another beneficiary with income for life or for a set number of years. When the trust ends, the remaining assets support Mustard Seed Communities’ mission of faith, hope, and love. This option allows you to convert appreciated assets into a steady income stream, receive a partial charitable tax deduction, and potentially reduce or eliminate capital gains taxes.

Real Estate & Appreciated Assets

Gifts of real estate, stocks, or other appreciated assets can offer significant tax savings while providing meaningful support to MSC. By donating these assets outright or using them to fund a life-income arrangement such as a CRT, you may avoid capital gains taxes and qualify for a charitable income tax deduction—all while transforming lives through your generosity.
