Tax-Smart Giving

You have a special opportunity to make an even greater difference for North Texas pets while strengthening your own financial goals at the same time.

We’re excited to share that our FreeWill partnership now includes tax-smart giving!

By donating appreciated stock or cryptocurrency, giving from your IRA (if you are 70.5 or older), or making a grant from a Donor-Advised Fund, you can make a meaningful impact for the pets we serve while gaining potential tax benefits, like: reducing your taxable income, avoiding capital gains taxes, satisfying Required Minimum Distributions (if you’re 73+), and making your generosity go even further.

Individual Retirement
Account (IRA)

If you’re 70.5 or older, making a qualified charitable distribution from your IRA is tax-efficient way to make a gift to HSNT while also counting towards your Required Minimum Distribution.

Cryptocurrency

Through FreeWill, you can donate cryptocurrency and make an outsized impact without ever selling the crypto yourself. FreeWill will handle the liquidation process and transfer the net proceeds of your gift directly to HSNT.
