Church Sponsorship

Our heart is to get the church involved in the community and the community involved in the church. We can’t do that without the buy-in from the local church. We look to churches to support us both financially and by providing volunteers. One of the great things about being a church sponsor is that it gives us a chance to work with your congregation and train and equip them to make a difference in our community. Some churches choose to sponsor monthly, some quarterly, and some yearly. Historically church sponsorship has been a large part of our income. We are available to meet with staff, speak to your missions/outreach committee or even speak to your congregation sharing testimonies of how church support makes a difference in this organization.

Business Sponsorship

Business sponsorships are crucial to the success of One Eighty’s mission. Our partnerships with business sponsors allow us to underwrite fundraising and outreach events, sponsor specific projects and offset administrative costs. In addition, support from business partners provides valuable encouragement to our residents to complete One Eighty’s program. One Eighty actively promotes and thanks our business partners during events, in our newsletter and through social media. See our specific business partnership and recognition levels here.

​Physical Items

Donations of physical items help supply needs without having to dip into our budget. This could be mowers, appliances, furniture, household items etc. Donations of this kind provide a tax write off, and meet needs at One Eighty and in the community. If you have furniture you would like to donate, please drop it off at our main campus.

Vehicles

Vehicle donations are a great way to support One Eighty. The vehicle is put to good use either as a vehicle for the ministry, or an affordable car for a resident, graduate or a family we serve. It is a tax write off for you and it is a huge benefit to someone who is in need of a vehicle. Email jenny@oneeighty.org if you are interested in donating a car.

Property or Land

One Eighty loves getting property or land donated. Whether it’s a house that needs renovated, something a graduate can move right into or land that we could build a tiny home on, we can take your donation and turn it into something useful for the ministry or community. It is also a tax write off for you.  

 

Amazon Wish List

​We have plenty of items we use on a regular basis at One Eighty – one of the ways to support our cause is to buy items from our Amazon Wish List. The items can be shipped directly to our campus and the process is easy.

Stocks and Bonds

Whether it be stocks, bonds, mutual funds, UIT’s, ETF’s, REIT’s etc… Donating appreciated marketable securities can be mutually beneficial to the donor and One Eighty. Many investors hold assets that have appreciated greatly over the years. Along with that growth comes capital gains taxes. Should the investor decide to gift all or just the growth portion of the appreciated asset to One Eighty, not only does the capital gain tax liability disappear, but the dollar value of the donation becomes a charitable tax deduction. Please see the below example.

 

Purchase 1,000 shares of XYZ stock at $10 per share = $10,000 cost basis

XYZ grows to $30 per share = $30,000 current value and $20,000 Capital Gain

Sold at $30 per share = $20,000 Capital gain X 15% Long Term Capital Gain tax = $3,000 tax debt

If not sold and 2/3rds of the shares are gifted = $20,000 tax deduction x 31% = $6,200 tax savings

Legacy Giving

As with nearly all of our most valuable material assets, (life insurance, retirement plans, annuities, 401K’s, etc) a beneficiary is put in place by the owner to make certain the asset is directed to the desired person or place at the time of the owner’s passing. These directions are often indicated by assigning certain percentages of the asset to be divided among loved ones, charitable foundations, or other organizations of interest. Many of heirs in this situation find it very comforting that their loved ones have chosen to designate One Eighty as one of those places as part of their ongoing legacy. It creates a lasting memory of the good things in this world that were and will continue to be important to their loved one, themselves and generations to follow. 

Estate Planning

A number of our supporters are nearing the age of 73. For those who have dollars in tax deferred (qualified) retirement plans, this means forced distributions. Sometimes called Required Minimum Distributions (RMD’s) that increase incrementally each year, these distributions are taxable at incomes levels as high as 36%. The distributions must begin the year in which the owner reaches the age of 73 and continue until all funds have been withdrawn or upon death, when in most cases, the surviving spouse must continue the taxable distributions. A mindful tax strategy often employed to offset tax liability in this situation is preplanned charitable giving. For those whose estate is in order and legacy giving is currently in place, charitable donations of RMD dollars accomplish two goals.

1.Dollar for dollar offset of taxable income via equal deductible donation amounts, thus eliminating RMD tax liability.

2.Seeing their gifted dollars at work and being a significant part of a ministry they truly believe in. 

Endowment

For all nonprofit organizations a steady, consistent, predictable stream of income is imperative for current and future success. The One Eighty Endowment Fund managed by the Quad Cities Community Foundation was established in 2024 for this purpose. Your legacy gift to the One Eighty Endowment Fund allows us to continue our work in perpetuity with your legacy as a vibrant part of our work.
