Ways to Give

Stock

Giving appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual fund shares held for more than a year is an easy way to make a charitable donation with considerable potential benefits.

In-Kind Donations

We host raffles and silent auctions at fundraising events and appreciate donations of high-end experiences and gifts, including sports and event tickets, vacation stays, VIP experiences, and gift cards.

IRA Charitable Rollover

If you’re 70½ or older, you can donate up to $100,000 directly from your IRA to the JCC as part of your Required Minimum Distribution, satisfying your withdrawal requirement while avoiding taxes on that amount as income.

Donor-Advised Gifts

A donor-advised fund is a giving account at a public charity that allows you to make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants to organizations like the Minnesota JCC at any time. Gifts should be made payable to Minnesota JCC, Tax ID #41-0833543, and mailed to 1375 St. Paul Ave, St. Paul, MN 55116. Please consult your financial or tax advisor about any restrictions that may apply to donor-advised fund gifts.

Employee Matching Gifts

Many employers offer corporate matching gift programs that can double or even triple your donation to the Minnesota JCC by matching your charitable contribution with an additional company donation. To take advantage of this opportunity, inquire with your human resources department about your company’s matching gift program and the process for submitting your contribution. Once you donate, keep your contribution acknowledgment for your records, as the JCC will receive the matching funds after your gift is processed.

Car Donation

Before trading in your old car, consider donating it to the JCC through our partnership with Saxon Auto Group—you’ll support the JCC’s mission while enjoying a 100% tax-deductible donation for the vehicle’s fair market value. Donating your vehicle is simple: just fill out our online donation form, and our team will guide you through the next steps. It’s an easy way to turn your old car into a meaningful community impact.
