Giving During Your Lifetime

By making a gift to 50 North during your lifetime, you get to experience the joy of partnering with 50 North for the benefit of Hancock County's older adults. There are also tax benefits that may be available to you when you give.

Planned Giving

These giving options and others may require a little more time and consultation with your professional advisor. However, these options may allow you to give more, maintain greater control or achieve financial or tax advantage. 50 North staff are pleased to work with you and your professional advisor to find the gift strategy that fulfills your personal and philanthropic goals.

" A gift from your IRA, 401k, 403b, pension, or other tax-deferred plan is an excellent way to make a gift. By making a donation to 50 North, you will impact the lives of older adults now and into the future. Please consider making a gift of your unused retirement assets to further 50 North’s mission of enriching lives and supporting independence."
Gene and Elaine Stevens—50 North members and donors

"When you donate appreciated securities to 50 North, you can take a tax deduction for the full fair market value of the security as of the date of your gift. Choosing securities that have the lowest cost basis and the highest capital gain makes the most tax sense. You pay no capital gains tax on your gift, nor does 50 North, because 50 North is a 501(c) 3 tax-exempt organization. Transferring securities from your brokerage account is not complicated. Donating long-term appreciated securities makes tax sense."
