Gifts of appreciated assets such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or other securities can be gifted to Grand Rapids Christian Schools, providing you with maximum tax savings versus other forms of giving.

We are familiar with handling non-publicly traded securities, real estate, and other assets used in charitable giving. If you would like to make a special type of gift, we will be happy to help you do so.

The simplest way to make a planned gift is to name Grand Rapids Christian Schools in your will or trust.

Designate Grand Rapids Christian Schools as a beneficiary of your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), life insurance, or other qualified plan.

This is a popular way to receive income for life while making an immediate, significant gift to our schools.

Congress has taken important steps to strengthen America's retirement system while also encouraging additional charitable giving. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 may offer you new opportunities for tax-free charitable giving. Of special note, the new law includes incentives for those 70 1/2 years of age and older who would like to make charitable gifts from potentially taxable Individual Retirement Account (IRA) funds.

Make a gift of your home, farmland, vacation property, or business property, and retain the use of the property for the remainder of your life.
