- Donor Advised Funds - These gifts can benefit IFAS programs.
- Life Insurance Gifts - Make your IFAS program a beneficiary in your life insurance plans.
- Real Estate - Outright or through a retained life estate, you may gift appreciated property held longer than one year. You receive tax deductions while avoiding capital gains taxes.
