outright gifts
Gifts of Cash - outright gifts of cash deliver immediate benefit to the Medical College of Georgia. If you wish to make a gift by check, please mail to: The Medical College of Georgia Foundation, Inc., 1021 15th Street, Suite 6, Augusta, GA 30901-3197. You may also make your gift by phone by calling (877) 823-5501. To make a gift online, please visit the MCG Foundation Online Gift page.
Gifts of Stock or Securities - a gift of appreciated stock is a great way to support MCG while avoiding capital gains tax and taking a charitable deduction. You may make electronic or physical stock transfers to the Foundation:
- Stock Transfers - gifts of stocks and bonds are valued as the average price between the highest and lowest quoted selling prices on the valuation date. Ordinarily, the date of the contribution of stocks and bonds is the date that the transfer of property takes place. To make a stock gift, please contact the Foundation or call us at (877) 823-5501.
Gifts of Real Property - (also called real estate) - gifts of land, its natural resources, and any building should be counted at values placed by qualified independent appraisers (as required by IRS for valuing non-cash contributions). There may be other considerations before making a real estate gift. Please contact the Foundation at (877) 823-5501, or email us.
Life Insurance Gifts - you may name the MCG Foundation owner and beneficiary of an existing fully funded insurance policy or an insurance policy in which the donor
pays premiums during the life of the policy. If the policy is not fully funded, additional premiums will be gifted to MCGF which, in turn, will submit premium payments to the insurance company. The Foundation's policy and procedure manual contains details on how to make a life insurance gift. Please contact the Foundation if you have further questions.
In-Kind Gifts - gifts of tangible personal property, such as works of art, books, scientific equipment, etc. may be made to the MCG Foundation. You may be able to claim an income tax charitable deduction for the full fair market value of tangible property, as determined by a qualified appraisal, if the gift is given for a use related to the educational mission of MCG. If you wish to make an in-kind gift, please e-mail us, or call us at (877) 823-5501.
