Stocks & Securities

Stocks & Securities

Giving appreciated securities is a fast and easy way to make a gift while deriving considerable tax benefits. In most cases, it's a better strategy to give a gift of appreciated securities directly, rather than selling them and donating the proceeds of the sale. Many donors find the tax benefits associated with giving appreciated securities allow them to increase the size of their gift.
