Timing Matters

12.14.20 | by Joyce Getchell

Timing Matters

    Now is the perfect time to support the ministries of Faith Lutheran Church and maximize your tax benefits.  You may not know that there is a special tax advantage this year to encourage giving. Previously, charitable contributions could only be deducted if taxpayers itemized their deductions. The CARES Act passed by Congress last March allows taxpayers who do not itemize deductions to take a charitable deduction of up to $300 for cash contributions made in 2020 to qualifying organizations, like Faith Lutheran Church

    Request an updated giving statement at any time from the church office.

    Cash or Check

    Hand delivery deadline is noon on Tuesday, December 31.

    If you are mailing funds, your donation is good for tax-year 2020 if the postmark on your envelope or package is before midnight on December 31.

    Electronic Bank Transfer or Credit Card

    If your donation appears on your statement as a December charge, it's good for tax-year 2020. Visit Faith’s secure giving portal.

    Securities

    Check with your bank or broker for contribution deadlines. Gifts of securities may need additional time to process.
