You can donate your stocks, bonds or mutual funds directly to St John’s. When you donate appreciated assets, you may avoid the capital gains tax and receive the charitable deduction for the fair market value of your gift.
Your financial advisor or brokerage can easily transfer your securities directly to the church's account using these instructions:

If you have reached the age where you are required to take an annual distribution from your IRA, you can direct a gift to a qualified charity like St Johns. This gift can count toward your required minimum distribution and may reduce your taxable income, even if you don't itemize deductions.
Next Steps: Contact your IRA custodian or Financial Advisor and request a Qualified Distribution to St Johns, 149 Ganttown Rd. Turnersville, NJ 08012. EIN# 93-3269705
Then notify the church so we can record your gift with our appreciation. If considering this strategy, please make sure that you plan ahead as there are important deadlines for St Johns to cash these checks by year end.
