4-H has been a part of our family for four generations. We both grew up with parents who were 4-H club leaders and were involved in many activities, chores and trips related to our 4-H projects. The principles 4-H instills in youth helped shape who we are today, and we are grateful and blessed for that experience.
We chose to provide our gift to the Kansas 4-H Foundation in the form of a direct stock transfer. This option is a tax- efficient way of giving and allowed us to maximize our endowment gift to accomplish our goal of establishing a scholarship for 4-H youth.
After working closely with our CPA, financial professional and representatives from the Kansas 4-H Foundation, we found passing on appreciated assets to be an effective way to make an impact and honor our family’s commitment to Kansas 4-H.
We encourage those interested in providing a gift to the Kansas 4-H Foundation to visit with their financial advisors and explore the benefits of this giving option.
