Want to learn more about grants from Vanguard Charitable?

Nonprofit organizations have a lot to gain from donors with charitable giving accounts. The more knowledge you have, the better you can relate to our donors.

Thanking Donors

We understand that thanking donors for supporting your organization may be a vital part of your outreach. When donor contact information is provided, you may thank them, as long as acknowledgement of the gift goes to Vanguard Charitable and a tax receipt is not issued. But sometimes our donors decide to give without recognition. In this case, contact information will not be provided.

Our donors decide what information can be released when a grant is issued. Some donors decide to release their names and contact information. Others decide to give limited information, such as an account name. Still others decide to remain anonymous. The letter that comes with the grant indicates the information a donor allows us to release. We respect our donors' recognition preferences and will not release unauthorized information.

Gift valuation and reporting

The value of your contribution is based on two things: The asset type and the date received. Gift valuation guidelines are set by current tax regulations. The IRS regulations state that you (as the donor) are responsible for determining the valuation date and the corresponding fair market value.

The chart below shows how different giving tools can influence both valuation and deductibility.
