Giving long-term appreciated securities provides two income tax benefits: no tax is imposed on the appreciated portion of the gift (long term capital gains), and the donor will receive a charitable deduction based on the stock’s fair market value. Because the donor can avoid the capital gains tax, it is usually more advantageous to contribute appreciated securities directly to Search and Care rather than selling securities and donating the proceeds of the sale. For more details, contact Brian C. Kravitz at (212) 289-5300 ext. 206.
Many employers have a matching gift program. Under these programs, the company matches all or part of their employee’s gift contributed to Search and Care. Matching gifts are credited to the donor’s individual gift record. Ask your employer if they participate in such a program. For more information, contact Tegan Rein at (212) 289-5300 ext. 207.
