The Salvation Army
Provides shelter, disaster relief, addiction recovery, and food assistance to people in crisis.
A Daytona Beach Shores home that has appreciated for decades carries a quiet tax bill that a sale would make real. Donating the property instead leaves that capital gain unrealized and routes the full value to a cause you select.

For many owners a long-held Daytona Beach Shores property has gained far more value than any cash savings — which makes the property itself the most tax-efficient thing to give.
A Daytona Beach Shores sale generates a stack of settlement paperwork. A donation produces a single qualified appraisal and a charity acknowledgment letter — the two documents that substantiate the gift at tax time.
Vacant homes, inherited houses, and tired rentals carry taxes, insurance, and upkeep. Donating a Daytona Beach Shores property ends the carrying costs in one step.

The deduction for real estate is generally capped at 30% of adjusted gross income in the year of the gift, but any excess carries forward for up to five additional years.
