Gifts of appreciated property typically qualify for an immediate tax deduction and result in the avoidance of tax on appreciation. Property gifts can include personal residences, second homes, income property and vacant land.

Donations are deductible for income tax purposes to the extent allowed by law. The IRS does not allow or permit us to place values on your donations. For more information, or to make a commitment, please email or call Beech Brook’s Development Department at 216.831.2255.
