Becoming a Donor
Managing your charitable giving can be complicated, confusing, and - at times - overwhelming. That's why establishing a partnership with Richland County Foundation makes such good sense. As a donor to Richland County Foundation, you will enjoy many advantages that can only be found in a community foundation.
• All gifts are tax deductible to the maximum extent allowed by law.
• We are free of the many administrative costs and restrictions placed on private foundations.
• We pay no excise taxes and have no annual minimum payout requirements.
• Donors with funds in a community foundation submit no separate tax filings.
• We keep administrative costs to a minimum, so more of each dollar actually goes to charity. Flexibility is an important part of RCF’s approach, and we offer a great variety of options for donors. Whether it’s simplifying giving, planning an estate, or maximizing tax benefits, we welcome the opportunity to explore your unique needs.
