MAKING A DONATION OF STOCK
In the same way donors can give cash to a nonprofit, they can also give stock and other securities.

Donating stock is good for the donor in two ways.

First, donors avoid paying capital gains tax on stock that has increased in value. Sale of stocks can be taxed at 37%, which means more than a third of the money goes to the government.

Second, donors can claim fair market value of the donated stock as tax deductions.

Donating stock is a great way to support Lullaby of the Rivers. The stock is transferred at its full value, nobody pays taxes. Lullaby of the Rivers can then choose to hold the stock or sell it immediately, using the funds for our mission.
