HOW TO HELP

Cash Donations

You can donate cash to The Gene Therapy Institute including personal checks, money orders, currency, wire transfers and credit cards. The Gene Therapy Institute expects that cash donations will be the one of the most successful way to obtain financial support for our medical research programs.

It works as follows:

  • Your businesses or company can donate cash to a Gene Therapy Institute.
  • You can benefit from a charitable deduction by giving cash donations.
  • Cash is the easiest donation and offers benefits immediately.

The Benefits of using cash donations:

  • You are allowed to a charitable income tax deduction.
  • This tax deduction adds up against a larger portion of your taxable income than with a donation of appreciated assets.
  • The IRS lets you declare charitable deductions for cash donations up to 50% of your adjusted gross income but only 30% for donations of appreciated assets.
  • You can have the satisfaction of making a significant gift to the Gene Therapy Institute, which will reduce the your taxes on transfers later.
