Gifts of Securities
|
Do you own marketable securities (such as stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares) that have appreciated in value that you are ready to sell? If so, and if you’ve owned the securities for at least a year, you can gift them to Hillbrook and earn a tax-deductible donation equal to its full current market value. You will not pay any capital gains taxes on the appreciation over your original purchase or basis price. Consider this option and maximize your giving dollars! If this would be a great fit for your family, consult your tax/accounting advisor for specific advice applicable to your individual situation and then download the Hillbrook Stock Donation Form.
