Mid-year Tax Planning: Charitable Contributions

We’ve reached the mid-year point and there is no better time than now to start your 2013 tax planning!  Following are some helpful tips in regards to charitable contributions as you begin proactively planning for 2013.

  • To avoid being a victim to scam artists make sure you double check charitable organizations before sending checks or giving them your credit card number.
  • Document all of your charitable contributions thus far.
  • If you donate appreciated stocks that you have held longer than one year directly to a charity, you will be able to deduct the full market value of your contribution.
