How Your Year End Gifts Can Benefit You1
* Your year end philanthropic gift is an excellent
way to express your gratefulness for the
teachings of the Siri Singh Sahib (Yogi Bhajan)
* Gifts postmarked by December 31st can qualify
for a 2004 tax deduction.
* Donating stocks gives you a two-fold tax savings:
you need not pay tax on the capital gain, and
you are allowed a charitable deduction for the
full market value of the stock at the time the gift
is made.
* Gifts of real estate ensure that you pay no capital
gains taxes on the property and you receive an
income tax deduction for the full fair market
value of the real estate.

Of course, giving is much more than tax brackets and charitable deductions. Your gift provides a meaningful difference to the programs supported by Sikh Dharma and our mission to serve and uplift by spreading the teachings of Yogi Bhajan around the world.
