As we look back on 2023, one word comes to mind: progress.

Dear Friend,

As we look back on 2023, one word comes to mind: progress.

From the courts to the classroom, we have been challenged greatly this year. But, our movement has faced these challenges and more, bringing us closer to our vision of a just, equitable world for all. For over 50 years, the SPLC has relied on generous donors like you. With 2023 coming to a close — now, more than ever — your gift can make a difference for our movement.

Many of our donors are making the most of their end-of-year gifts by giving non-cash assets rather than cash. The next couple of weeks are crucial to meeting our goals, and I want to share a couple of tax-smart ways you can give:

• Transfer appreciated assets: Save on two types of taxes and get a full deduction for the value of your gift. Our stock tool tracks your donation so we can thank you for your gift!
  
  
• Give directly from an IRA: Donors 70 ½ or older can reduce their taxable income (and if you need to meet a Required Minimum Distribution, IRA gifts can count towards those as well!).

Give smarter today

As year-end approaches, I hope you consider the progress we’ve made and make a smart gift to ensure our march for justice continues.

With gratitude,

Your friends at the Southern Poverty Law Center
