Publicly Traded Securities in Kind





This form of charitable donation not only helps advance our healthcare mission
but also provides significant benefits to you as a donor.




What Are Publicly Traded Securities in Kind?

Publicly traded securities include stocks, bonds, and mutual funds listed on a recognized stock exchange.
When you donate these securities directly to our foundation, you can avoid capital gains tax on their appreciated value.


Benefits of Donating Securities:

Tax Savings:
Donating securities directly can provide greater tax savings compared to selling the securities and then donating the cash proceeds.
By avoiding capital gains tax, you can maximize your charitable contribution while minimizing your tax liability.

Increased Impact:
The full market value of your donated securities can be put to work immediately, funding critical healthcare services, research, and programs that benefit our community.

Simple Process:
Our foundation makes it easy to donate securities. We work with you and your financial advisor to ensure a smooth and efficient transfer.
