Corporate Matching Gifts
Many employers contribute to the Association for Community Employment
for the Homeless by matching their employees' individual,
tax-deductible donations. Thousands of companies have matching gift
programs that double (a one-to-one match) or even triple the amount of
your donation.
To find out if your employer has a Corporate Matching Gift Program,
contact your company's Personnel Manager or Matching Gifts Program
Officer. If your employer does have a matching gift program, please
obtain your employer's matching gift form, complete it, and send it
along with your donation to:

Gifts of Securities
Gifts of Securities (e.g., stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares, etc.) are
simple alternatives that can benefit both you and ACE. By making a gift
of assets that have appreciated in value, such as stocks, you can avoid
capital gains taxes when you donate to ACE. Knowing the cost basis (how
much you paid) for your stock is important in determining how much you
will save. By donating any security held for more than one year, you
can take an income tax charitable deduction equal to the full value of
the donated stock. Moreover, you will have no capital gains tax
obligation on the donated stock. ACE will also accept a donation of
non-liquid assets such as real estate, art, jewelry, and valuable
collections. And in the case of appreciated securities, you may deduct
the full fair market value of your gift once you have held onto the
securities for at least one year. You may use your deduction up to 30%
of your adjusted gross income and are permitted to carry any unused
deduction forward for up to five additional years.
Bequests: Gifts Made Through Your Will or Living Trust
To make your generosity felt by the least fortunate New Yorkers for
years to come, you can donate through wills, trusts, and life insurance
gifts. A bequest may take several forms. It can be a specific sum, a
percentage of your estate, or the remainder of your estate after
expenses and gifts to loved ones. Living trusts are a popular choice
because the terms of a living trust, unlike a will, can be put into
effect immediately upon your death, bypassing probate and keeping the
terms private. In certain cases of larger estates, a bequest to charity
may reduce the value of the estate enough to minimize or eliminate the
estate tax.
Charitable Status
The Association for Community Employment for the Homeless is a
501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization registered with the Internal
Revenue Service/Department of the Treasury. Therefore, all donations
are tax-deductible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Donors receive an acknowledgment that includes a confirmation of their
donation for their tax records.
