Donating appreciated stock is a powerful way to support 1st Stage—and it can provide significant benefits for you.

Why donate stock?

When you donate stock you've held for more than a year, you can:

• Avoid capital gains taxes on the appreciated value

• Deduct the full fair market value of your gift

• Make a bigger impact by giving more than you could with cash alone

How to make your gift:

Making a gift of stock is simple. Provide the information below to your broker or financial advisor, and they'll handle the transfer. Then let us know so we can thank you properly!
