Grow Charity

Valley Medical Center Foundation (VMC) is launching a new initiative to help show people time-proven ways to give and support the ministry…ways that often don't impact your cash flow. This initiative helps people free up dollars that would otherwise be paid in tax, money that can actually be redirected as a donation to VMC.

Helping individuals discover dollars that have never been available before is a key strategy in good stewardship.

Consider these questions:

1. Have you considered creative ways to give that involve your estate plan?
2. Did you know you could consolidate all your regular tithing for the next 5 years and take the entire tax deduction this year?
3. If you own real estate, you probably know you will have to pay nearly 25% tax when selling the property. Would you like to hear about how you can avoid that 25% tax by committing to a 10% gift at the end of your lifetime?
4. Are you aware that key financial tools (ie. 401(k), IRA, Life Insurance, etc) are critical to your safeguarding your future? And they can be excellent tools to use in your charitable giving too?
5. Would you like to learn how to pass on your philanthropic passion to your children and grandchildren?

If any of these topics are of interest to you or you have further questions, please call us at (408) 885-5299. We would love to connect you with a team member that can discuss your needs.
