The tax
advantages of gifts of securities – especially those that have
appreciated significantly – are significant. Gifts of this type
actually provide a double benefit. First, you receive a charitable
tax deduction for the full fair-market value of the property. Second,
you avoid any capital gain tax you would pay if you sold the securities
and donated the cash.
A third benefit
is the satisfaction you receive from knowing that your good fortune is
helping others learn to read and write, effectively giving them a chance
at the success you have known.
