There are many meaningful ways to support the children of Casa de Ángeles. Whether you choose to make an immediate impact or create a legacy for the future, every gift helps brighten lives and build a stronger foundation for years to come.
Ways to Support Casa de Ángeles
Casa de Angeles Endowment Fund
We are excited to announce the Casa de Ángeles Endowment Fund — a lasting source of support to ensure our mission continues for generations to come. If you would like your donation to benefit the Endowment Fund, simply note it on your check or select the Endowment option on the online donation form.
Donate Directly from Your IRA – Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs)
If you are 70½ or older, you can make a gift directly from your IRA to Casa de Ángeles through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). A QCD can count toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) for the year — and it’s a tax-smart way to give. Because the distribution goes directly to our nonprofit, you avoid paying income tax on the donated amount. A wonderful way to support the children while enjoying tax benefits!
Give Through Your Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)
Have a Donor-Advised Fund? You can recommend a grant to Casa de Ángeles today and make an immediate difference. A DAF allows you to make a tax-deductible contribution now and direct gifts to causes you love over time. To give through your DAF, simply contact your fund manager and recommend a grant to Casa de Ángeles Foundation.
Gifts of Stocks, Securities, and Mutual Funds
Donating appreciated assets — such as stocks, securities, or mutual funds — is a powerful way to give. When you donate these assets directly, you can avoid capital gains taxes and may be eligible for a charitable deduction for the full market value of your gift (if held for more than one year). You can also name Casa de Ángeles as a beneficiary of these assets in your estate plans to maximize your impact and minimize taxes. Talk to your financial advisor about the best option for you.
Leave a Lasting Legacy – Planned Giving
Including Casa de Ángeles in your will or estate plan ensures the children in our care will continue to thrive for generations to come. If you would like to include us in your legacy, or if you have already done so, we would love to hear from you! Please contact us at msgolbus@aol.com for more information.
