The Financial Benefits

Make a bigger impact by donating securities directly;

Eliminate capital gains tax by donating securities directly to the WCF (rather than selling them and donating the proceeds to deliver a greater charitable tax credit for you and more funds to the WCF to fight childhood cancer).

Why donate securities;

Your gift of securities entitles you to (resale) of your contribution. Your gift will result in a non-refundable tax credit that will reduce your income taxes. You can use it in the year of your gift or carry it forward for up to five additional years.

Pay no capital gains tax;

Donating securities directly to WCF avoids capital gains tax on the appreciated value (increased price) of your securities, maximizes the return on your investment and protects the tax credits for use against other taxable income.

The chart below shows the tax advantage when you donate shares to WCF instead of selling them and donating the proceeds. This calculation assumes a marginal tax rate of 50%.
