Gifts of Stock

Gifts of stocks, bonds and mutual funds to Washington Toxics Coalition can be a tax-wise contribution. If you own stock that has appreciated in value and would like to sell it, you will pay capital gains taxes on the increased value.

If you donate the stock to a charitable organization, however, it is exempt from taxation. Your donation will support Washington Toxics Coalition’s critical work, and you will be able to deduct the stock at its full market value, generally up to 30% of your adjusted gross income.
