Donating stocks and bonds is a tax-smart way to give.
Gifting non-cash assets like stock is one way donors can make a big impact for hurting children and families through Operation Blessing and Orphan’s Promise.
Benefits
- Avoid paying capital gains tax on the sale of appreciated stock.
- Receive a charitable income tax deduction.
- Further the humanitarian outreach of Operation Blessing and Orphan’s Promise.
How to Make a Gift
If stocks or mutual funds you’ve held for more than one year have increased in value, you may want to consider using these assets–rather than cash–to fund your giving.
By electronic transfer – If you own assets in a brokerage or investment account, gifts are typically made electronically. Please contact the Planned Giving team for instructions on how you can transfer stock from your brokerage or investment account to Operation Blessing, or directly to Orphan’s Promise.
