Charitable Gift Annuities
Feel confident that you have dependable income in your retirement years with a charitable gift annuity. This gift can provide you with regular payments and provide SFMOMA with the resources to support our misson. You can also qualify for a variety of tax benefits, including a federal income tax charitable deduction when you itemize.

Retirement Plan Assets
Retirement plan assets are a great way to support the work of SFMOMA because they not only help contemporary art flourish, but they also can provide tax relief for your loved ones. Consider leaving your loved ones less heavily taxed assets by leaving your retirement plan assets to SFMOMA.

A Gift from Your IRA
If you are age 70½ or older, you can take advantage of a simple way to give to SFMOMA and receive tax benefits in return. You can give up to $100,000 per year from your IRA directly to a qualified nonprofit without having to pay income taxes on the money.

Gifts of Real Estate
When you give SFMOMA appreciated property you have held longer than one year, you qualify for a federal income tax charitable deduction. This eliminates capital gains taxes. And you no longer have to deal with that property's maintenance costs, property taxes, or insurance.

Gifts of Stock or Mutual Funds
If you’re looking for a tax-smart way to support SFMOMA, consider a gift of stock. When you give appreciated stock or mutual funds that you’ve owned for more than one year, you can avoid capital gains taxes and receive a charitable income tax deduction when you itemize.
