Warriors Christian Academy

Gifts such as land, building material, labor, desks, chairs, computers, printers, and more may all be gifted directly to Warriors Christian Academy. Most in-kind gifts are eligible for an income tax charitable deduction and part of a larger charitable financial plan for both individuals and companies.  Gifts of appreciated assets, such as real estate or securities, may also avoid capital gains tax.

Today’s volunteers set the example for tomorrow’s leaders. We have many opportunities, from school day and morning/afternoon  transportation lines, lunch periods, or behind the scenes preparation for events and class activities. 

To ensure the long-term success of Warriors Christian Academy in meeting the Christian education needs of future generations, we encourage legacy gifts through one’s estate plan. These gifts can take many forms. Here are just a few to consider:

Naming Warriors Christian Academy as a beneficiary of your Qualified Retirement Plan (IRA, 401K or 403B, Annuity). These assets are subject to income tax when withdrawn by the owner or his or her heirs, but qualified charities, like Warriors Christian Academy, are tax-exempt. This is the generally the preferred legacy gift to make to charities and requires only a change in your Beneficiary Designation Form.

• Naming Warriors Christian Academy as a beneficiary of a Bank or Investment Account. This is accomplished through a Payable on Death or Transfer on Death form provided by your bank or investment manager.
• Naming Warriors Christian Academy as a beneficiary in your Will or Living Trust. You may designate a gift of a named asset, such as real estate, or investment account to Warriors Christian Academy, You may also name Warriors Christian Academy to receive a specific dollar amount or percentage of your remainder estate.
• Naming Warriors Christian Academy as a remainder beneficiary of a Charitable Remainder Trust. An asset or cash may be given while retaining an income for your lifetime or period of years, or income to your heirs for a period of years. The remaining amount at death or period of years would then go to Warriors Christian Academy. These gifts are eligible for an estate tax charitable deduction and avoid capital gains tax upon the sale of an appreciate asset.
• Naming Warriors Christian Academy as a lead beneficiary of a Charitable Lead Trust. An asset may be given that distributes annual income to Warriors Christian Academy for a period of years with the remaining amount to your heirs. These gifts are eligible for an estate tax charitable deduction.
