Giving Back: Linkenheimer LLP Volunteers with Redwood Gospel Mission

At Linkenheimer LLP, community is at the heart of everything we do. Last week, our team had the privilege of volunteering with the Redwood Gospel Mission at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, an event focused on providing support and care to those in need across our region.

From serving meals to assisting with event logistics, we joined forces with an incredible group of volunteers and staff to create a welcoming and supportive environment for members of our community facing hardship. Events like this highlight the strength and compassion of Sonoma County, reminding us of the power of collective action and connection.

Volunteering is not just about giving back—it’s about stepping into our community with open hearts, meeting people where they are, and embodying our firm’s core values of Approachability, Care, and Teamwork. We are proud to contribute to initiatives that align with these values and make a tangible difference in the lives of others.

We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Redwood Gospel Mission for organizing such a meaningful event and for their unwavering dedication to serving those in need. It was an honor to work alongside so many passionate individuals who share a […]

Year-End Giving To Charity Or Loved Ones

The holiday season is here and many people plan to donate to their favorite charities or give money or assets to their loved ones before the end of the year. Here are the basic tax rules involved in these transactions.

Donating to charity

In 2022, in order to receive a charitable donation write-off, you must itemize deductions on your tax return. What if you want to give gifts of investments to your favorite charities? There are a couple of points to keep in mind.

First, don’t give away investments in taxable brokerage accounts that are currently worth less than what you paid for them. Instead, sell the shares and claim the resulting capital loss on your tax return. Then, give the cash proceeds from the sale to charity. In addition, if you itemize, you can claim a full tax-saving charitable deduction.

The second point applies to securities that have appreciated in value. These should be donated […]

Linkenheimer’s 2022 Nicaragua Eye Care Trip

A team from Linkenheimer spent 10 days in Nicaragua during June of 2022 with the hope of bringing eye care and the gift of vision to people in the rural region of the Rio San Juan. Nicaragua is the 2nd poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and the people in this region are severely underserved. Most have no medical, eye or dental care available to them. During our time there, the team tested and dispensed eye glasses to over 630 patients, many of whom travelled great distances to get to our testing site. The village we set set up in for testing is a hub for immigrants from Venezuela, Cuba and Columbia who are travelling to the U.S. border. We also provided toys and games for the children, along with sunglasses. This was Linkenheimer’s sixth trip to the region.
