CFU FUNDRAISING – HELPING YOU BY HELPING US
Real Unity is Helping Each Other
At the Center for Unity (CFU), we believe in the power of service and unity to transform lives. Our mission is to bring the life and teachings of Jesus to people around the world, fostering spiritual growth and understanding. We're reaching out to you today because your support can make a significant impact on this important work.
Your Donation: An Act of Service
When you donate to CFU, you're not just giving money – you're serving humanity. Your contribution directly supports the creation of resources and tools that share Jesus' message with an ever-growing audience. Through our sister organization, Worldwide Ministry of Jesus, your donations are tax-deductible, allowing you to serve both spiritually and practically.
Your support enables us to:
1. Develop innovative projects like AskJesuschatbot.com and DiscoverJesus.com
2. Create educational resources such as the Urantia Book Tutor
3. Produce engaging content through The Jesus Experience and Cinematic Jesus
4. Establish long-term impact through our Jesus Light and Life Legacy Endowment Fund (JLLLEF)
Tax-Efficient Ways to Donate
We want your donation to benefit both our cause and your financial well-being. Here are some tax-efficient ways to contribute:
1. Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs): If you're 72 or older (73 if you reach 72 after Dec. 31, 2022), you can make tax-free donations directly from your IRA.
2. Cash or Non-Cash Donations: Direct donations of money, household goods, or other items are tax-deductible.
3. Appreciated Assets: Donating stocks or mutual funds can provide significant tax benefits.
4. Donor-Advised Funds: Contribute now and recommend grants over time.
5. Volunteer Expense Deductions: Deduct unreimbursed expenses incurred while volunteering.
Remember to consult your tax advisor or financial planner for personalized advice. (A quick reminder to our friends in the U.S. that now is the best time to start planning for your year-end charitable donations for tax deductions).
