Stock, Real Estate, and Other Non-Cash Assets

You may be able to increase your potential impact — and experience significant tax savings — by giving stock, real estate, or other non-cash assets to World Help.

Most Americans carry only 10 percent of their wealth in the form of cash. The remaining 90 percent is held in the form of non-cash assets such as stock, real estate, business interests, or commodities.

By considering all the resources God has entrusted you to manage, you can multiply the impact of your generosity AND eliminate unwanted costs and stress.

Benefits of Giving Non-Cash Assets

• Tax-wise. Receive a fair market value deduction at the time of your gift and avoid tax liability on the sale of appreciated.
• Eliminate hassles. Give assets you no longer need or want to manage (such as rental properties or vacation homes) for the benefit of World Help.
• Capacity to Give. Give from your excess resources without restricting cash flow.
• Estate planning. Eliminate potential taxes or complications for your heirs by giving complex or burdensome assets to ministry now.

Stewards Fund

Streamlined and Simplified Giving

World Help partners with Barnabas Foundation to offer you a donor-advised fund called the “Stewards Fund” to simplify and streamline your giving. Like a “charitable giving account,” you can give non-cash assets* into a single fund to be distributed to one or more of your favorite ministries. Barnabas Foundation will manage and liquidate your assets, depositing the funds into your online account. Then, at a time that works best for you, you can request grants be made to World Help.
