Introducing Stock Gifting
Benefits of Stock Gifting
- Unmatched Tax Benefits: by donating appreciated stock, you may avoid paying capital gains tax while deducting the full fair market value of the gifted stock held more than 12 months.
- Greater impact: by donating stock (rather than selling stock and donating after-tax proceeds), nonprofits keep the proceeds that would have otherwise gone to pay capital gains tax.
- Alignment with Values: donating appreciated stock demonstrates an investment that aligns your financial interests to your philanthropic goals. By donating stock, you’re sharing your wealth, not your income.
- It’s fast, safe and free. While stock gifting used to be a painstaking manual process, you can initiate your first stock gift online in 5-7 minutes at no cost.

The IRS classifies cryptocurrency donations as property, meaning they are not subject to capital gains tax and are tax-deductible. Your contributions are tax-deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Can I donate anonymously and still receive a tax receipt?
Yes. Donors who wish to give anonymously can supply an email address during the donation process where they will receive their automatic tax receipt.
