Steps to Donating Grain To receive intended tax benefits and recognition for their gift, farmers need to take the following steps to ensure ownership of the gifted grain is transferred prior to the sale. 1.

Confer with your tax advisor. Because each farmer’s financial situation is different, be sure to consult your tax advisor to determine if a grain gift is right for you.

2. Alert the Floyd Valley Hospital Foundation. Contact Chuck Jespersen (Foundation Manager) at the Floyd Valley Hospital Foundation at 712-546-3348. Let him know you are making a grain gift along with the name of the elevator. The Foundation will then set up an account at that elevator. 3.

Deliver grain or notify the elevator your grain is already in storage. The donor requests transfer of the actual grain to Floyd Valley Hospital Foundation’s ownership and account.

4.

The elevator gives the farmer a receipt. The donor is given a receipt of the number of bushels that was transferred to the Floyd Valley Hospital’s Foundation.

5. The Hospital Foundation sells the grain. The elevator sends the contract-to sell for signature to the Floyd Valley Hospital Foundation (now the owner) to sell the grain. 6.

Farmers who give grain will help Plymouth County patients for years to come.

For the first time in 40 years,

Floyd Valley Hospital is asking the community for help building a new clinic and surgery center along with many additional important renovations. With a project of this magnitude (nearly $27 million), the hospital will rely on the generosity of local donors to raise $2.6 million. Already individuals, families, businesses, and hospital staff are making gifts and pledges in the form of cash, stock, payroll deductions, and charitable trusts.

Leaving a Legacy One Bushel at a Time Farmers are also giving meaningful gifts of grain. By turning their bushels into charitable contributions, the land they have dedicated their entire lives to will help their hospital care for Plymouth County patients for generations to come.

Harvest for Your Hospital Beginning this fall, any bushels harvested (or in storage) are eligible to be donated to the Harvest for Your Hospital program. Gifting grain to the Floyd Valley Hospital Foundation is a creative way to provide farmers with tax benefits as well as impact the lives of local patients. • Farmers may avoid federal and state income taxes. • Farmers may also avoid paying the self employment taxes. • The hospital retains 100% value of the gift. • Farmers may deduct input costs.
