Philanthropy
can be mutually rewarding . . .
The primary motive for making a gift
supporting the CAHPERD Foundation for the Promotion of
Healthy Lifestyles lies in the conviction that the Association
can make a distinctive and valuable contribution to the
educational, social, and cultural fabric of California.
When the decision to support the Association has been made,
tax deductions allowed to charitable contributions play
an important, legitimate, and often rewarding role in determining
the method of making the gift.
Gifts may be made through matching gifts
by employers, corporations, foundations, outright or contingent
bequests, remainder interest in property, and by other
gifts-in-kind.

- Outright gifts include contributions
of cash, securities and real property. The amount
deducted varies with the type of gift.
- Gifts of cash quality for
a deduction of up to 50% of adjusted gross income
with a five year carry over.
- Gifts of real estate generate
substantial deductions, reduce estates value, and
may provide life income for the donor.
- Gifts of tangible personal
property that has increased in value offer better
advantages than depreciated property. An appraisal
to establish fair market value is essential.
- Gifts of insurance provide
a larger gift than available current funds can provide
for most people. The Foundation may be named owner
and/or beneficiary of a policy and excellent tax
deductions are available.Gifts of securities allow
for generous deductions, no capital gains tax, and
possible life income. Securities may fund an endowment
or other gift account.
- Remainder gifts provide lifetime
income for the donor and spouse and then for the
Foundation. These types of gifts can be made through
trusts which are funded by cash, real estate insurance,
and/or securities.
- Gifts may be made through
matching gifts by employers, corporations, foundations,
outright or contingent bequests, remainder interest
in property, and by other gifts-in-kind.
