Give to Support Patients and Families

When you give to Reserve Care, you help ensure individuals and families receive compassionate support during some of life’s most meaningful moments. Your generosity strengthens care, sustains services and brings comfort to those facing advanced illness, caregiving and loss.

As a community-based nonprofit, we rely on people who believe dignity and presence matter. Every gift reflects a shared commitment to walking alongside families when they need it most.

Making a Stock Gift

A gift of stock or mutual funds allows you to make a meaningful contribution in a thoughtful way. By transferring appreciated securities directly to Reserve Care, you increase the impact of your generosity while helping sustain essential services for patients, families and caregivers across our community. 

Many donors choose this option because it allows them to make a powerful impact while maximizing the value of their gift.

  • Delivering account number
  • CUSIP or ticker symbol

Note that the gift is for the benefit of Reserve Care

After submitting your request, please call our Development Office at 855.475.0245 so we can confirm and acknowledge your gift.

How to transfer stock

If your broker holds your stock, follow these steps:

Instruct your broker in writing to transfer the shares to Reserve Care

  • Include your name, address and phone number with the transfer
  • Send a copy of your instructions to Reserve Care so we can properly acknowledge your gift
  • Your broker will need Reserve Care’s Direct Transfer Code (DTC) number and account number to complete the electronic transfer.

Benefits of giving stock

A stock gift may provide important tax advantages while advancing care in your community. Depending on your situation, you may be able to:

  • Receive an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock at the time of the gift
  • Avoid paying capital gains tax on the increased value of the stock
  • Make a larger impact than giving cash alone

To receive the full tax benefit, transfer appreciated stock directly to Reserve Care before it is sold. If you plan to donate depreciated stock, it is generally best to sell the assets first and donate the proceeds.

We encourage you to contact your tax adviser to understand how these benefits apply to your specific situation.

      Planned Giving Opportunities

      Planned giving allows you to support Reserve Care in a way that reflects your values and long-term goals. These gifts help ensure compassionate care remains available for future generations while offering potential financial and tax benefits for you and your loved ones.

      Many planned gifts are simple to arrange and offer flexibility. Some options may also provide income, reduce taxes or allow you to make a larger impact than you thought possible.

      IRA qualified charitable distribution

      If you are age 70½ or older, you can make a tax-efficient gift directly from your Individual Retirement Account. This option allows you to support care today while reducing your tax burden.

      Key benefits include:

      • Give up to $100,000 per year from your IRA
      • Avoid paying income tax on your gift
      • Make an immediate difference for patients and families

      This type of gift is also known as an IRA charitable rollover.

      Gift of real estate

      A gift of real estate allows you to support compassionate care without using cash or financial investments. You may transfer property directly or include it in your estate plans.

      Potential benefits include:

      • Federal income tax charitable deduction
      • Avoiding capital gains taxes on appreciated property
      • Relief from maintenance, taxes and insurance costs

      This option allows you to turn property into lasting support for patients and families.

      Gift of life insurance

      A gift of life insurance allows you to make a significant future impact through an asset you already own or create. This option offers flexibility and may provide tax advantages.

      You can give life insurance by:

      • Transferring ownership of an existing policy
      • Opening a new policy and naming Reserve Care as owner and beneficiary
      • Naming Reserve Care as a beneficiary of your policy

      This process is simple and can often be completed through your insurance provider.

      Will or living trust

      Including Reserve Care in your will or trust is one of the simplest ways to create a lasting legacy. You can make this gift with the guidance of your attorney or financial advisor, and it does not affect your finances today.

      You can choose to:

      • Leave a specific dollar amount
      • Donate a percentage of your estate
      • Give the remaining balance of your estate
      • Name Reserve Care as a beneficiary of specific assets

      This type of gift may also help reduce estate taxes for your loved ones.

      Charitable gift annuity

      A charitable gift annuity allows you to support Reserve Care while receiving fixed income for life. In exchange for a gift of cash or securities, Reserve Care provides guaranteed payments to you and, if you choose, one additional beneficiary.

      Benefits may include:

      • Fixed payments for life
      • Federal income tax charitable deduction
      • Reliable income and meaningful impact

      Your legacy ensures care continues

      Planned giving helps ensure Reserve Care can continue providing comfort, guidance and expert care for generations to come. Your gift reflects your values and strengthens compassionate care for those who need it most.

      Every act of giving ensures no one navigates serious illness or loss alone. Thank you for partnering in care.
