TAXES & GIVING

---

The Catholic Community of Pleasanton (as part of the Diocese of Oakland) is an exempt organization as described in section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Your contributions are tax-deductible for income, gift, and estate tax purposes to the extent allowed by law.  Prospective donors are encouraged to consult a qualified financial advisor or income tax professional  for more detailed information. 

Federal and state laws on income and inheritance taxes encourage charitable giving.  It may be particularly advantageous for some people to contribute stocks, appreciated securities, annuities, property, or other valuables.  Or traditional giving through personal check or electronic transfer may be best.  Some may have the option of applying for a matching gift.
Because each situation is unique, we urge you to discuss such donations with a financial advisor or income tax professional.

If you have any questions, or if you would like to plan a gift of appreciated assets or matching gift by an employer and need additional information, please contact:
