What to Give

Many types of assets can become impactful legacy gifts to AIDS Foundation Chicago. Read on to learn more about how your assets can be gifted in furtherance of our mission.

  • Donating appreciated securities, including stocks or bonds, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift to AFC.
  • Make a significant impact by donating appreciated real estate, including homes, vacation properties, undeveloped land, farmland, ranches, or commercial properties.
  • Contribute to AFC by donating unused retirement assets, whether from your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), pension, or other tax-deferred plans.
  • A gift of cash is a simple and easy way for you to make a gift.
  • If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, consider making a gift of your insurance policy. For example, you may have purchased a policy to provide for minor children and they are now financially independent adults.
  • Donate mineral interests, such as oil, gas, gold, silver, or other precious metals, providing an excellent avenue for a charitable gift.
  • As a business owner, you have the opportunity not only to build your business and accumulate wealth for yourself and your family, but also to accomplish your philanthropic goals through charitable planning. A gift of your corporate stock or assets can provide you with tax and income benefits and help further our mission.
