When you make an individual gift to NW Children’s Foundation, 100% goes directly to ending the intergenerational cycle of child abuse, neglect, and trauma.
Donating stock is a smart investment and a wonderful way to support NW Children’s Foundation in ending child abuse and neglect.
If you have stock that you have owned for more than one year and it has appreciated since you purchased it, you can save on the capital gains tax you would owe if you sold it yourself by donating the stock to NW Children’s Foundation. Since NW Children’s Foundation is a 501(c)3 charitable organization, you will be entitled to an income tax deduction for the full current market value of your gift, to the extent allowed by law. Of course, consult with your financial planner, accountant or estate attorney to discuss your specific situation.
