Thank you for joining the many individuals, churches, and organizations that make our work possible! Abundant Life is a registered 501(c)(3) and all donations are tax-deductible. Give online now, or see below for other ways to give.
Paper Check
Checks should be made out to “Abundant Life” with memo of where you would like your donation directed (if any) and mailed to “P.O. Box 71, Charlottesville, VA 22902.”
Stocks and Mutual Funds
We are happy to receive gifts of stocks or mutual funds directly from your broker! You’ll avoid paying capital gains taxes and still earn a charitable tax deduction. Ask your Brokerage Firm to transfer ownership (or “gift the stock/fund”) to us so you will not have unnecessary tax to pay. Have your Brokerage Firm email Jazmine or Rebecca to find out details.
Donor-Advised Funds (DAF)
We are happy to receive gifts through Donor-Advised Funds such as Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, a community foundation, or another sponsoring organization! When making your recommendation, please designate Charlottesville Abundant Life Ministries (EIN 54-1588588). Please note that gifts given through DAFs will be receipted by those entities, not Abundant Life.
Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD)
QCDs are gifts of all or part of a retiree’s Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from their IRA (Independent Retirement Account). Giving a QCD reduces the retiree’s income for that year, which in turn reduces their total income tax. So, if you have more RMD than you need, we are happy to help by receiving some here! Email Jazmine or Rebecca to learn more — or talk with your financial advisor.
NAP State Tax Credits
Through our participation in the Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP), which incentivizes Virginia taxpayers to donate to non-profits serving in predominantly low-income communities, we have a limited number of state tax credits to offer to our faithful donors each year. Please note that gifts given through DAFs or other 3rd-party entities are not eligible for NAP Tax Credits. Learn more about our NAP Process and Guidelines
Meta routes all Facebook donations through the PayPal Giving Fund and deducts a small fee, which you can choose to cover. Your donation receipt will come to you directly from the PPGF.
PayPal Giving Fund (PPGF)
Give without fees through the PPGF via PayPal, your checking account, or credit card. Your donation receipt will come from PPGF. To designate your gift to any fund other than “General,” please email Jazmine with the details of your donation and the requested designation.
Online Bill Pay
