Gifts of Appreciated Stock
A Smart Way to Give: Donate Appreciated Stock
Donating appreciated stock is one of the most tax-efficient ways to support OneFamily.
Here’s why it makes sense:
When you donate stock directly to OneFamily, you avoid paying capital gains tax on any appreciation—and you can still claim a deduction for the FULL fair market value of the stock. That means your gift could be worth up to 20% more than if you sold the stock and donated the cash.
For example, if you’ve held a stock for more than a year and it has increased in value, selling it would typically trigger a capital gains tax of up to 20%. But if you donate it directly to OneFamily, no tax is owed, and you’re helping Israeli victims of terror with every appreciated dollar.
Given the long-term growth of the stock market, many investors have stocks that have significantly appreciated in value. A direct stock transfer donation helps you maximize your impact and minimize your taxes.
