Dear Valued Supporter,

As we approach the end of another year, we at SENT Topeka are filled with gratitude for your continued support. It’s that time of the year when we come together to make a real impact on our community. We invite you to join us in our Year-End Giving Campaign and help us maintain our unwavering commitment to under-resourced communities in Topeka by raising $10,000 in our general fund to propel the organization forward into 2024, enabling SENT Topeka to continue its mission of walking alongside its neighbors, fostering loving relationships, and pursuing strategic development to achieve holistic transformation in Shawnee County..

Why Donate to SENT Topeka’s General Fund?

  • Flexibility: Your contribution to our general fund allows us to maintain flexibility in our actions and decision-making, enabling us to respond swiftly to the most urgent needs in our community.
  • Impact Maximization: By donating to the general fund, you empower us to allocate your donation where it can make the most significant impact. Our deep understanding of our community’s needs ensures your support goes where it’s needed most.
  • Supporting the Whole Mission: General fund donations help sustain our overall mission and operations, ensuring that all our programs and services can continue to run smoothly.
  • Efficiency and Effectiveness: Your support helps us allocate resources efficiently, reducing administrative costs and maximizing the impact of every dollar donated.
  • Reaching More People: General fund donations enable us to expand our reach and serve a broader range of individuals in need, extending our positive impact within the community.
  • Sustainability: Your contribution contributes to the long-term sustainability of our organization, allowing us to continue our essential work for years to come.
  • Supporting Infrastructure: Your donations help us maintain our infrastructure, including staff salaries, facilities upkeep, and technology investments, ensuring our ability to operate effectively.

 

 

Year-End Giving Tax Benefits:

Donating to our General Fund before December 31, 2023, not only supports our mission but also offers compelling tax benefits. As the year-end approaches, consider donating to our General Fund rather than a specific allocation donation.

  • Tax Deduction: If you itemize your deductions on your tax return, you can deduct charitable contributions made to eligible organizations, reducing your taxable income and potentially lowering your tax liability. Donations made before the end of the tax year can be deducted on your tax return for that year, allowing you to see the tax benefits sooner. Donating before year-end can potentially increase your itemized deductions and maximize your tax savings.
  • Appreciated Assets: Donating appreciated assets, such as stocks or property, allows you to deduct the fair market value of the asset and avoid paying capital gains tax.
  • Qualified Charitable Distributions: If you are over 70.5 years old, you can make direct transfers from your IRA to qualified charities without including the distribution in your taxable income.

Remember, it’s always wise to consult with a tax advisor to understand the specific tax benefits and implications for your individual situation.
