Pledge

Why Pledge?
We are asking you, our members and contributors, to consider making a pledge to Camp Samish so that we might be able to predict our fund raising, and better plan phasing for our construction projects. Projects are built as funds become available. If we know when money will be available, we can schedule our construction projects more efficiently. The longer we wait to build, the more expensive the projects become.

It may be helpful for you to use the chart on the Tithing Envelope page to decide what your donation commitment will be to the Samish Campground Development Program.

You may use a Stock Donation to the Development Program. The stock is donated at the current appreciated value with no capital gains tax due to the IRS on the increased value of the stock. The full current value of the stock is used to reduce your adjusted gross income on your tax return - thus reducing the income tax you pay for the year of the donation. (Stock donations are limited to 50% of adjusted gross income - any amount over 50% is carried over to the next tax year)

The advantage for you is that you can give more then if you make a cash donation plus the tax write off.

You can also plan to include the Samish Campground in your estate planning.
