Donate Stock or Appreciated Securities
Your generous gift of stock or appreciated securities can turn the tide for those affected by crimes against children. Contributing appreciated stock is one of the most tax-efficient ways to support our mission.
Why Donate Stock?
Donating publicly traded securities offers significant advantages over selling the stock and donating cash:
Avoid capital gains taxes — You bypass taxes on any appreciation in the stock’s value.
Receive a charitable deduction — You can generally deduct the full fair market value of the stock (up to IRS limits).
Make a larger gift — Your donation retains its full value, with no transaction costs or taxes reducing it.
Make a lasting impact — Help create a community free from abuse and neglect.
