Giving stock
By making a gift of securities, you may:
- Claim the market value of the stock as a tax deduction, which is usually more than the actual amount paid for the shares.
- Avoid capital gains, state and local taxes on the profit from the sale of the securities.
There are only two simple steps to donate securities to United Way.
- Contact your broker and request a transfer of securities to the United Way account. United Way maintains accounts at most brokerage firms in metro Atlanta. Please do not send stock certificates by mail.
