Matching Funds

Matching funds are a great way to double your gift to the Clinton Christian Academy. This year we have $22,000 pledged, if we can raise that much in cash donations during the evening of the auction through March 31, 2011. While the sale of auction items does not count toward matching gifts, raffle ticket sales, cash donations and purchasing a stone on our scipture walk do count.

Scripture Walk

Contributions levels of $1200, $2700, and $7500 pledged over 3 years are honored with a personally selected scripture and will be engraved on beautiful granite with donor information and added to the school’s Scripture Walk. Payments may be made directly online or by mail to CCA monthly, quarterly, or annually.

Gifts in Honor or Memorial
A contribution to Clinton Christian Academy in honor or in memory of someone brings special meaning to your gift. Often these gifts are made on behalf of a graduate or at the occurrence of special events in one’s life. We will send a card to those you designate to receive notification of your honor or memorial gift. A plaque in CCA will also be inscribed with those honored for this type of gift.

To make a gift in someone’s honor on-line, please include the name and address of that person in the memo field in the PayPal process. To mail a gift, please specifically note “A Gift to Honor ___” or “ A Gift in Memorial of ___”.

When making a gift in someone’s memory, please include the name and address of any individual(s), friends, family members or colleagues you would like us to notify.

Other Means of Giving to CCA

Bequests: charitable gift by will

A bequest can be a gift of a stated sum of money, a percentage, or the amount that remains after other bequests have been honored. A bequest may also be a gift of a specific item to CCA as a specific beneficiary

Life Insurance
There are a number of different options in this area. Speak with your life insurance agent about the options.

You can: name Clinton Christian Academy as a beneficiary to receive a certain percentage of your life insurance; donate a paid-up policy, which enables you to take a tax deduction in the amount of the replacement value of the policy; purchase a new policy and designate Clinton Christian Academy as owner and beneficiary (all of your premiums are then tax-deductible); buy life insurance to replace a bequest (this enables you to take the tax deductions now); or designate Clinton Christian Academy as a secondary or final beneficiary, which means that if your primary beneficiary(ies) predeceases you, Clinton Christian Academy is then the beneficiary and the amount we receive when the time comes is deducted from your estate taxes.

Retirement Assets
Giving retirement assets enables you to fulfill your charitable goals while removing a potential tax burden from your heirs. Unlike your heirs, Clinton Christian Academy does not have to pay income taxes on the assets. Through retirement assets, you may be able to make a larger donation to us and reserve nontaxable assets for your heirs. You may also use retirement assets to establish a charitable trust, designating Clinton Christian Academy as the final beneficiary. Your spouse or other loved ones will receive payments from the trust for the duration of his/her life, after which we receive the remainder, with no estate or income taxes levied, to continue our work.

For more information about planned giving options, please consult with your tax advisor or attorney and contact our School Board with any further questions.
