REMEMBER THE GFO AT TAX TIME

Tax Time Again! Members and friends are encouraged to include the GFO in their planned giving. The forum is a non-profit 501c(3) organization, and the amount of a donation is considered 100% tax deductible. Donations of money should be made payable to The Genealogical Forum of Oregon Inc. You may direct such gifts either to the General Fund or to the Endowment Fund. If undirected, they will be placed in the general fund to address current priorities. Also, the GFO is a qualifying Oregon non-profit of the Cultural Trust of Oregon, which provides additional tax advantages to Oregon residents who donate to the GFO. A matching gift to the Trust is treated as a tax credit. For details, please consult the web site www.culturaltrust.org.
