Make a gift of Appreciated Securities

Giving appreciated securities is an easy way to support the MCV Foundation and derive considerable tax benefits, including:

  • A charitable tax deduction equal to the fair market value of the securities at the time of your gift
  • Avoidance of the capital gains tax on the increase in value
  • Reduction of the cost of the gift when a long- or mid-term appreciated stock gift is made

If your securities are held electronically with your broker, send your broker a letter authorizing the transfer (not sale) of shares of specific stock(s) to the MCV Foundation’s main brokerage account.

The authorization letter should include:

  • Donor's name
  • Donor's address
  • Donor's account number
  • The date by which the donor wishes to complete the gift
  • The name, type and number of shares the donor would like to donate
  • The purpose of the gift (unrestricted or for the benefit of a particular school, center or program)
  • Originating brokerage's name
