Gifts of Appreciated Securities
(Is this gift for you?)

A gift of appreciated securities is for you if ...

  • You're holding stocks, bonds, or mutual fund shares that have risen in value.
  • You want to maximize your deduction but not incur capital gains tax.
  • You want to make an outright gift to us, or a gift that will first return lifetime payments to you.
