Why give to CHS?
CHS's Mutual Giving Fund & Partnership Trusts are donor-advised fund(s) that help you dedicate money to charitable purposes in a more organized, effective way — and, ultimately, may allow you to give more to charity. CHS makes it easier to plan all aspects of your giving, from the assets you contribute to the charities you support.
MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR CHARITABLE GIVING
When you give, you want your contributions to do the most they can — for your charities and for you. Integrating your charitable giving and financial planning can make a difference. CHS provides a simplified approach to maximizing your charitable contributions and tax benefits — so you can give even more.

simplified approach
Once you make your initial contribution, you can contribute to CHS as often as you like. You can make larger contributions at times that make sense for you, such as when you receive a bonus or have a significant capital gain, or you can simply continue your existing charitable traditions as initially established.
Favorable tax treatment
Because CHS is a church charity, your contributions may qualify for the highest income tax charitable deduction available. In fact, contributions to CHS can often result in larger tax deductions than those that would result if the same contributions were made to private foundations.
complex contributions
The Complex Asset Group at CHS has the technical expertise and experience to accept many contributions of complex assets, including private C- and S-corp stock, restricted stock, limited partnership interests, and other privately held assets. Both you and the charity will benefit from the following:

If you were considering selling a security so that you could donate the proceeds to charity, you would generally have to pay capital gains taxes, thereby reducing the value of your contribution. However, if you contribute the actual long-term appreciated securities, we liquidate the
contributed assets, and you take an immediate tax deduction for the fair market value of the securities. Furthermore, the proceeds from our sale of the securities are available in your Giving Account for grants to the charities you support.
