GIFTS OF STOCK

Stock-Market.jpg

Did you know that giving appreciated stock held for more than a year could be more beneficial than giving cash?

If you donate stock that has increased in value since it was first purchased over a year ago—and if you itemize deductions—you can take a charitable deduction for the stock's fair market value on the day it is given to Children’s Cause.

The Benefits

  • You receive an immediate income-tax deduction for the fair market value of the securities on the date of transfer.
  • Capital gains taxes are not paid on the transfer.

Please consult a tax professional for details.
