For the One who made us For the ones He’s called us to serve
Give Online NowAll Grace giving goes to For the One, an initiative of generosity for all Grace ministries, including an external focus to help people struggling with mental health. God has called us into this space to share His love through the work of the church, and through attention and focus on making a difference in Reno.
Giving is quick, easy, and secure. Make a one-time payment or schedule a recurring gift using your checking account, debit, or credit card.
Giving Securities (Stocks, Bonds, and Mutual Funds)
Make a bigger impact by donating long-term appreciated securities, including stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. You may be able to increase your gift in a tax efficient way, especially if it has been held for more than a year and appreciated in value (please consult your tax adviser for your personal situation).

Are you 70 ½ or Older?
If so, you may want to consider making charitable gifts through a QCD (qualified charitable distribution). A QCD is a direct transfer of funds from your IRA custodian, payable to the charitable organization of your choice. QCDs can be counted toward satisfying your required minimum distributions (RMDs) for the year, as long as certain rules are met. In addition to the benefits of giving charitably, a QCD excludes the amount donated from taxable income, which is unlike regular withdrawals from an IRA. Keeping your taxable income lower may reduce the impact to certain tax credits and deductions, including Social Security and Medicare. Also, QCDs don’t require that you itemize, which due to the recent tax law changes, means you may decide to take advantage of the higher standard deduction, but still use a QCD for charitable giving. If you want to visit more about making a gift through a QCD, please email fortheone@gracechurchreno.org or speak with your financial advisor.
