What are the benefits of donating to charity?
For ordinary people, this is a chance to do something useful and good. Support someone in a difficult moment. For example, when there were fires in Australia, I was happy to send a few dollars to the Red Cross to help.
For companies, this is an opportunity to declare themselves, get loyalty and show the company’s policy on certain things. For example, a Portafina company helps fight type 1 diabetes on this page. You can join the nm
In addition to the satisfaction of knowing that you are helping the Red Cross to do our important work, donations are fully deductible as allowed by law. There may be tax benefits to making significant gifts. For example, when you make a contribution of appreciated securities, you are eligible for a tax deduction and may be able to avoid paying capital gains tax. Please call 1-877-REDCROSS, ext. 2617, for further information.
