Giving More Via Stock Donations

Donating appreciated stock is one of the easiest ways to give more to the cause you care about!

Your stock donation is a great way to support our mission, provide an income tax deduction for the full market value

You can make a bigger impact by donating long-term appreciated securities,
including stock, bonds, and mutual funds, directly to charity.

Stock Donation Infographic

Compared with donating cash or selling your appreciated securities and contributing the after-tax proceeds, you may be able to automatically increase your gift and your tax deduction.  By donating stock that has appreciated for more than a year, you are actually giving 20 percent more than if you sold the stock and then made a cash donation. The reason is simple: avoiding capital gains taxes.

To be eligible for a charitable deduction for a tax year, donations of stock need to be received by the end of the year. Because different assets take different amounts of time to be transferred, you should initiate your transactions as early as possible.
