Did you know that:

• You don't have to use cash to make your gift — donate appreciated securities instead. As you have looked at your portfolio and perhaps shifted your holdings, you may have looked at some long held and highly appreciated securities that don't make sense for your investing future. This might be the ideal time to gift those stocks as you create a new investment profile for 2009 and beyond.  The deduction is the same as for a cash gift, and you pay no capital-gains tax on the transfer.
• You can make a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime — name Santa Maria Community Services as a beneficiary of your will, or revocable trust, or your retirement plan.

Sr. Blandina Heritage Society

Sr. Blandina Heritage Society honors individuals who have made deferred gifts to Santa Maria Community Services. Membership in the Sr. Blandina Heritage Society is open to individuals who make the following types of gifts:

• Will bequest
• Charitable Remainder Trust
• Charitable Lead Trust
• Life Insurance
• IRA, retirement plan assets

Santa Maria Community Services and its employees do not offer legal or financial advice. We encourage you to consult with your attorney, financial advisor, estate-planning professional, accountant, or other appropriate professional before making any decisions.
