Support Affordable Housing in Atlanta

Everyone deserves a chance to own a home. By supporting the Atlanta Land Trust, you help create and preserve permanently affordable housing—and there are many ways to give: make a one-time or monthly donation, contribute stock or a donor-advised fund grant, establish a gift or endowment, or even donate land. Every gift brings us closer to a more equitable Atlanta.

Donate Your Home

Leave a Legacy of Permanently Affordable Housing in Atlanta

As a property owner, you can help ensure long-term housing affordability in Atlanta by donating your home or land to the Atlanta Land Trust (ALT). Your gift supports permanently affordable homeownership for low- to moderate-income families—and may offer you significant tax benefits.

ALT also accepts donations of other real estate assets—including undeveloped land, residential or commercial property, and personal property. These may be sold, with proceeds supporting our mission.

Ways to Give

Outright Donation
Transfer a home or land parcel in Atlanta directly to ALT. We’ll develop or rehab the property to create permanently affordable housing.

Discounted Sale
Sell your property to ALT below market value. The difference between the appraised value and sale price may qualify as a charitable deduction (typically requires a discount of 20% or more).

Retained Life Estate
Donate your home now but retain the right to live in it for life or a set period. ALT receives full ownership afterward.

Bequest
Name ALT in your will or living trust to receive your property after your passing. If there’s an outstanding mortgage, we ask that it be paid off before transfer.

Option Bequest
Include terms in your will or trust that allow ALT to purchase your property at a discounted price after your passing.

Life Income Gift
Donate property to fund a charitable remainder trust or gift annuity, providing income to you or a loved one, with the remainder benefiting ALT.

Before making a gift, please consult with your attorney or financial advisor to ensure your plans meet legal requirements and maximize your tax benefits.
