More Ways to Give
Your generosity transforms lives and brings hope to our neighbors experiencing homelessness. Discover meaningful ways to make a lasting impact beyond traditional donations.
Transform Lives Through Strategic Giving
At Gospel Rescue Mission Tucson, we believe every gift—no matter how it’s given—has the power to transform lives and bring our neighbors from homelessness to wholeness. While your cash donations are vital to our daily operations, there are other meaningful and often tax-advantaged ways to support our mission of providing hope, shelter, and transformation.
Arizona Tax Credit Opportunity: GRM qualifies for the Arizona Charitable Tax Credit. You can donate up to $495 if you file individually or $987 if filing jointly, receiving a dollar-for-dollar credit on your state taxes while supporting lives in transformation.
Ways to Give
Stocks & Securities
Donate appreciated stocks, securities, or cryptocurrency directly to GRM. You’ll receive a tax deduction for the full market value while potentially avoiding capital gains taxes. This smart giving strategy can maximize your impact while providing significant tax benefits.
Real Estate Gifts
Donating real estate—whether a home, commercial property, or land—can be a transformative gift. You’ll avoid capital gains taxes and receive a charitable deduction for the property’s fair market value, while supporting our mission in a significant way.
Contact us to discuss how your property can create lasting change.
IRA Charitable Rollover
If you’re 70½ or older, you can make a gift directly from your IRA to GRM without incurring income taxes on the distribution. This Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) can satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution while supporting neighbors in need.
Benefit: Reduce your taxable income while making a meaningful impact.
Consult with your financial advisor about this powerful giving tool.
Donor Advised Funds
Set up a Donor Advised Fund to make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants from the fund over time. It’s a flexible and strategic way to manage your charitable giving while supporting our ongoing mission.
Consult with your financial advisor about this powerful giving tool.
Workplace Giving
Support GRM through your employer’s workplace giving program with regular, automated donations from your paycheck. Many companies offer matching gift programs that can double or triple the value of your contribution, maximizing your impact with minimal effort.
Check with your company’s HR department about matching gift opportunities.
Vehicle Donations
Donate your car, truck, or other vehicle to support our guests’ journey back to employment and independence. The donation process is simple, and you’ll receive a charitable tax deduction for the vehicle’s fair market value while helping someone rebuild their life.
Turn your unused vehicle into hope and transformation.
