Benefits of contributing appreciated securities
A gift of appreciated securities that have been held for more than one year may provide significant benefits to you as a contributor, such as:
● Entitling you to a charitable income tax deduction for the fair market value of the gifted securities as of the date of gift.
● Eliminating capital gains tax that would ordinarily become due if you had sold the appreciated securities on the open market and donated the proceeds from the sale to a charity.
● Claiming your charitable deduction against up to 30% of your adjusted gross income. Any unused deductions can be carried forward over the next five years.
● Providing a way to help you to achieve your long-term financial objective of reducing your income and estate taxes.
You should always consult with your financial advisor before initiating a charitable gift arrangement, to ensure that you are aware of all the possible tax benefits and implications of such a gift.
