By donating appreciated stocks, mutual funds or stock options, you pay no tax on the capital gains and receive a tax receipt for the securities’ fair market value. You can donate publicly traded securities like stocks, bonds or mutual funds to Grandview Kids during your lifetime or in your will. You can help children and youth in our community live at their full potential today and in the future.
A gift of appreciated securities is a worthwhile alternative to a cash gift. Flexible choices allow you to decide how you want to give, and eliminating capital gains tax on gifts of appreciated securities provides you with a substantial tax incentive for donating stock. Other benefits include:
- A charitable tax receipt
- No capital gains tax paid
- Satisfaction of seeing your gift put to good use today
- Recognition on the Donor Wall
- Naming opportunity in Grandview Kids – The Jerry Coughlan Building
