donating stock
Donating stock is a smart investment in children. With your donations of stock, you can increase the number of Washington children reached.
If you have stock that you have owned for more than a 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 Children's Trust Foundation. Because CTF 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, we recommend that you consult with your financial planner to discuss your specific situation.
