Other ways to give
Gifts of land
LCLT accepts gifts of land to assist in support of our mission. Lands identified as strategic conservation priorities are accepted as conservation land donations. Other land donations may be accepted for their financial value in support of the work of LCLT.
If your property is accepted, you could potentially deduct the current market value of your donated property. Significantly reduce your legal and tax liabilities while supporting the mission of LCLT. Ask your tax consultant or attorney for advice specific to your situation.
To discuss the criteria that would allow LCLT to accept a donation of land—either for conservation or financial value— please contact Lake County Land Trust Board President at 4val944@gmail.com.
Gifts of stock
There can be significant tax advantages for giving appreciated stock as a donation to the Lake County Land Trust, including a contribution of the appreciated value and an avoidance of the gains that would otherwise occur and thus be taxable.
Because LCLT is a 501(c)3 organization, any gain in appreciated value would be avoided through the gift of stock. Further, the full value of the stock on the date of contribution can be used as a charitable deduction on your Federal income tax return. In short, your gain becomes a gain for your favorite non-profit organization, while at the same time, you are released from any financial tax obligations. Please consult a tax professional for advice with your specific situation.
If you would like to make a contribution of stock to the Lake County Land Trust, please call 707.262.0707, or email Finance Director Anne Martin: annemartin@lakecountylandtrust.org. Thank you for this consideration!
