The simplest way to contribute to NMCF is to donate cash or stocks.  However, an innovative and tax-smart way to give is to make “innovative gifts” – such as real estate, business interests, and restricted securities. 

NMCF is a recognized leader in receiving, managing, and liquidating these types of assets.  We handle the administrative burden by selling the asset for your clients and then placing the net proceeds into their NMCF Giving Fund or NMCF Legacy Fund, from which they may recommend grants to their favorite causes.

Your clients can give full or partial interests, and they can give during their lifetime or (with proper planning) after death.  Innovative gifts usually provide your clients with a far greater tax deduction than if they had sold the asset first and then donated the proceeds to charity.

NMCF can accept most any type of asset, including:

• Real estate – land, houses, or other properties
   
• Business interests – ownership in closely-held businesses, Limited Partnerships, Limited Liability Companies, or Sub-chapter S corporations
   
• Restricted securities – publicly traded securities that may have sale restrictions
   
• Loan notes – money owed to you through loan notes
   
• Estate gifts – proceeds from wills, trusts, or life insurance policies
   
• Retirement plans – 401Ks, IRAs, or pension plans
   
• Life insurance – term, whole, universal, or variable
   
• Personal property – royalties, copyrights, artwork, or precious metals
