Give Stock & Securities

Gifts of securities, and appreciated stocks, bonds and mutual funds are a great way to make a gift and may provide special tax advantages to the donor. By donating appreciated securities that you've owned for at least one year, you receive the same tax deduction as if you had donated by cash or check. Also avoid tax on the capital gains those securities have accumulated over time. A true "double benefit." If you're interested in making a gift of securities, please reach out to us directly for more information.
