Tax Smart Giving
Tax-smart giving options
Rather than donating cash, many of our donors are opting for non-cash options that help us provide a safe and loving home for every companion animal.—while also offering a variety of tax benefits. Click the link below to learn more about giving stocks, cryptocurrency, gifts from your IRA, and making a grant from a donor-advised fund.

Save taxes by donating stocks!
Donating stocks allows you to avoid capital gains tax and often take a charitable deduction for the full value of the asset. Use this tool to donate stock so we can track your gift, send you the correct receipt, and you can get the tax savings you deserve.
If you would prefer to make your donation through your broker, access our transfer information from the link above to notify Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation of your gift.
Save on taxes by giving from your IRA
If you are 70.5 or older, giving from your IRA can help reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it! By using the link below to give from your IRA, you can auto-complete your paperwork and we can track your gift to send you the proper tax receipts.
Easily make a grant from your Donor-Advised Fund
Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are investment accounts for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations today. The secure DAF link below:
- Automatically links with your DAF
- Allows you to recommend how you’d like your gift to be used
- Notifies Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation of your intentions
Using the link below to grant from your DAF also saves us a lot of time, so thank you! It’s a great way to ensure consistent financial support for companion animals while saving cash for immediate needs.
We accept Cryptocurrency donations!
We accept donations of Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies! This is one more way to fund our work to protect companion animals that can provide you with extra tax benefits.
