Gifts of Stock
A gift of stock is a powerful way to make an impact through your philanthropy. By donating appreciated securities, such as stocks, bonds, or mutual funds, you may be able to maximize your charitable contribution while potentially receiving valuable tax benefits. In many cases, donors can avoid capital gains taxes on the appreciation of their assets and may be eligible for a charitable income tax deduction based on the fair market value of the securities. Upon receipt, the securities are sold and the proceeds support our work. For many donors, stock gifts are an effective way to turn long-term investments into lasting community benefit while making the most of their charitable giving.
Please consult your financial or tax advisor regarding your specific situation.
