What's a Stock Gift?

Donating appreciated securities, including stocks or bonds, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift to Trueface.

Benefits of Giving Appreciated Stock

  • Get an income tax deduction, typically based on asset’s fair market value
  • Avoid federal and state capital gains taxes
  • Avoid the Affordable Care Act Medicare tax
  • Give a meaningful gift to support Trueface, with no cash out-of-pocket

If you sell your stock, your lifetime investments can be lost to capital gains tax. When you give stock to Trueface before selling, you won’t pay any taxes, and you’ll receive an income tax deduction for your gift.

By certified mail

If you hold securities in certificate form, you will need to mail two envelopes separately to complete your gift. In the first envelope, place the unsigned stock certificate(s). In the other envelope, include a signed stock power for each certificate. You may obtain this power from your broker or bank. Please remember to use certified mail.
