Upcoming FamilyKind Happenings

 

A Big Thank You to Everyone Who Contributed on Giving Tuesday!

We want to give a special THANK YOU to everyone who joined us on GivingTuesday– the global day of giving that inspires millions of people to come together! Your generosity will make it possible for us to help more families and protect even more children going through the turbulent period of separation and divorce.


 

Consider supporting FamilyKind in your year-end tax planning!

As FamilyKind is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, contributions are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

  1. Because of the CARES and Consolidated Appropriations Acts, you can take up to a $300 tax deduction if single and $600 if married for a charitable contribution in 2021 even if you don’t itemize.

  2. Contributing appreciated stock is a tax-smart way to donate while managing your portfolio.

  3. If you need to take RMDs (Required Minimum Distributions) from a retirement account, making a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) may help meet your RMD and yield important tax benefits.

All these forms of contributions provide much-needed funds for FamilyKind’s education and support services for families going through divorce and separation.

Email treasurer@familykind.org or accounting@familykind.org for our 2 step process to donate stocks and mutual funds. Please consult your tax advisor to address your specific tax situation.

Привіт друже, дуже гарний запит, та загалом тематика, зараз тобі дам рекомендацію з приводу новинного порталу, та тут одразу зможемо поспілкуватися про всі останні новини. Можу тобі відверто сказати, що я сам тільки нещодавно розпочав читати новини на якісному порталі. Також з нового для себе відмітив, новини про Джозефа Байдена https://glavcom.ua/tags/dzhozef-bajden.html, котрий відкрився для мене з нового боку, а також, я не забуваю читати новини пов'язані з моєю країною, що дозволяє мені бути залученим у життя різних областей та міст. Окрім новин про Джозефа Байдена, я активно читаю новини закордонних країн, що також дуже важливо, бо світові новини та справи дуже впливають на світосприйняття. Також, я не забуваю читати новини про нашу неньку, це вже звичка, котра переросла в обов'язок.
