STOCK DONATIONS
Donating appreciated stocks, bonds and mutual fund units is the most tax-effective way to make an outright gift during your lifetime. Not only do donors receive a tax credit for their gift but you also pay no capital gains tax. Stock donations represent a win-win situation for everyone involved.
Whether you donate cash or appreciated securities, you will receive a tax receipt that creates a tax credit. An extra tax incentive available for gifts of appreciated publicly listed securities makes stocks the least expensive way to give. Not only do Donors receive a tax credit for their gift but you also pay no capital gains tax.
