Charitable Giving #1

I’m Miriam Neff, and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, with Wise Women Managing Money

M Many of us do most of our charitable giving in December.  Rather than simply looking through the glitter mail asks, think, what do I want to promote.  I’ve discovered a ministry that is evangelizing young Native Americans in their nation. A new opportunity for me to give.

V  We’ve seen the real need of people struggling with finances and know that God’s word give directions.  God says give generously.  Plan and execute your giving to maximize dollars.  Giving an appreciated asset is an option with most ministries. So are gifts through wills or trusts.

M  I’ve learned that giving that appreciated asset directly means less tax dollars to government and more ministry dollars to Kingdom causes.
