With the stock market still high, donating stock is a great option! When you donate appreciated stock, you save on your taxes in two ways: you receive a charitable gift tax deduction and you don’t pay capital gains taxes on the shares you donate. If you love Forest Park and want to help us restore and protect it for future generations, we invite you to consider making a donation of appreciated stock.
It’s easy to donate stock and makes a big difference for Forest Park. Here’s all you need to do:
- Consult with an advisor about the amount and types of securities you want to give.
- Share the Forest Park Conservancy’s account information with your advisor.
- If you can, email Kady to let us know you’re donating stock.
- If you hold your own stock certificates, transfer those to FPC’s Schwab account.
The Forest Park Conservancy’s Charles Schwab account# is 8594-1826 and our DTC # is 0164.
