Outright Gifts are donations made by cash, check, credit card or a matching gift. The contribution is made immediately from donors like you directly to Sun Health Foundation. This allows you to see your generosity in action. Many people are surprised to learn that outright gifts to charitable organizations, such as your favorite campaign initiative, can bring personal financial benefits such as a charitable income tax deduction up to the full value of the gift.

Outright Gifts are also the most popular type of charitable gift because of the simplicity and ease of delivery. All Outright Gifts are deductible up to 50 percent of the donor’s adjusted gross income. Any excess deduction can be carried over for the next five years.
