| YOU
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
HBRI is embarking on an extraordinary campaign
to raise funds and awareness for the many outstanding
programs that our scientist strive in. We are asking
you to discover the work that drives HBRI and discover
the impact that you can have on significant issues
that effect us all including Alzheimer’s Disease,
Lung Cancer, and Parkinson’s Disease. Take a
look below and find the many ways that you can make
a difference.
The
Human BioMolecular Research Institute is a tax-exempt
501(c)3 non-profit research institute and accepts
gifts and donations through the "HBRI Fund"
to further its mission to do basic research in the
public good. Gifts and donations to the HBRI Fund
are tax-deductible to the extent that the law provides.
The HBRI Fund is held at the San
Diego Foundation. The San Diego Foundation can
offer assistance in transferring your gifts to HBRI.
YOUR
GIFT IS IMPORTANT
Cash
You can make a cash donation by check or
credit card. To use your credit card now, simply click
here. You will receive a receipt
for your tax-deductible donation.
Outright Gifts
While gifts of cash and securities are most welcome,
giving appreciated stock results in greater benefit
for you. You not only receive an income tax charitable
deduction, there is also a bypass of the capital gains.
Gifts In A Retirement Plan
The tax consequences of transfer-ring any assets in
these plans to anyone but your spouse can be extremely
severe.
If
you make HBRI the successor beneficiary of your spouse
in the plan, we will receive the full value of the
remaining assets. The size of your estate is reduced
and your family receives a larger legacy.
Gifts At No Current Cost
You may make some gifts with-out experiencing any
change in your lifestyle. For example, you can make
HBRI a beneficiary in your will, retirement plan or
living Trust.
Gifts That Transfer Wealth
You may make a gift and pass assets to your family
with significantly reduced estate and gift taxes by
using a Charitable Lead Trust. Assets are transferred
to a trust that pays income to HBRI for a term of
years. The assets are then transferred to you or to
your family.
Gifts In Your Will
You can name HBRI in your will, making us a direct
or contingent beneficiary of: a specific sum, a percentage
of the estate or the residue of the estate. If you
have an existing will, you need not create a new one.
Have your attorney add a codicil including HBRI.
Gifts That Return Income
You may make a gift, receive a tax deduction, a bypass
of capital gains, estate tax benefits and an income
with a gift to: Charitable Remainder Unitrust, Charitable
Remainder Annuity Trust, Pooled Income Fund or Charitable
Gift Annuity.
The
income may be for your lifetime, yours and your spouse,
or someone you designate. The income may also be for
a term of years (20 maximum).
Gifts With Your Home
You may make a gift of your home, receive a tax deduction
and continue to live in your home with a Life Estate
Reserved. You deed your home to HBRI with an agreement
that you continue to live in your home. You maintain
your residence, pay property taxes, etc. We do not
assume total ownership of the property until after
your lifetime.
