Two Ways To Benefit Your Awana Missionary:
Non-Cash Assets - Many people consider cars, boats, timeshares, jewelry, business inventory, real estate, and other non-cash type gifts to help us reach boys and girls, and their families too, for Christ. An estimated 90% of America's wealth is in non-cash assets, yet the vast majority of churches and ministries receive less than 10% of their gifts from these assets. Why? Because they're not equipped to accept non-cash gifts. Through our foundation we can accept them, and we will work with you to develop the best giving strategy for you and your family. If done properly, givers can avoid or reduce taxes and maximize giving. Simply visit CreativeGivingSolutions.com's Awana section to learn more. On that page, select the Donation Button and choose the U.S. Missionary Fund. Under the Brief Description type the Missionary's name or account number.
Your IRA - If you are over age 70 1/2, you may annually gift any amount up to $100,000 of your IRA to your Awana Missionary. It's very easy to make the gift by directing your custodian to transfer a portion of your required minimum distribution directly to Awana. For more information simply visit AwanaFE.org. |
